Sometimes it is HOW you approach the person.
Nothing wrong with disagreeing, but I have
seen people approach others rudely.
Many times....
Love is patient, Love is kind,
It does not envy, it does not boast,
It is not proud, It is not rude,
It is not self-seeking,
It is not easily angered,
It keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil,
but rejoices with the truth.
Love always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends.

If I may – let me offer a couple of examples of why we are warned about making judgments;
Example one:
1.A street thug guns down a drug dealer in cold blood for selling drugs in his territory.
2. A street thug guns down a man as he leaves the liqueur store to take his wallet.
Which sin is worse?
--------------
Example two:
1.A Drug dealer sells drugs to a collage student that ultimately leads to the student's demise
2.A drug addict robs a convince store to get money for his addition
Which sin is worse?
--------------
Example 3
1.In a drunken argument one man shoots and kills his neighbor in a heated argument.
2.The young man living three blocks from your home worships Satan.
Which sin is worse?
--------------
Final Example:
1 The young man living several blocks from your house, in a drastic Satanic ritual has sacrificed the life of an innocent child.
2 In a moment of weakness you catch yourself having vivid sexual thoughts for your neighbors spouse walking past you on the street.
Which sin is worse?
--------------
The problem is, we as humans can't help but place human values on the things we judge. In each of the examples above there is clearly one that seems worse to us than the other.
However, in God's judgment ALL the above examples are equally severe. If a person guilty of #2 in the last example wishes to judge harshly the one who committed #2 in the first example he should be aware that his sin is equally harsh in God's eyes.
The most difficult thing to accept and understand because of our human perspective is that the young man practicing Satanic rituals and taking the life of an innocent can be as easily forgiven by God as you or I for having a moment of fleshly weakness and lusting after another individual.
All sins are equal,
All judgement is equal,
All forgiveness is equal!
[EDIT] This is not the same thing as "judging" whether it's safe to cross a busy street or if the bologna in your refrigerator has gone rancid. These are decisions or calculations (if you will) one MUST make in every day life to continue every day life! God never asked us to go through life blind to physical dangers.

It's actually right to judge.
Jesus taught us not to judge self righteously or judge someones heart.
But He also taught us that when we judge, we are to judge by a right standard which is the Word of God.
The Bible also teaches us that we are going to judge angels.

Oh goodness, isn't God the greatest? Matthew writes that Jesus says that we should not judge, but the second verse says by the same measure we judge, so shall we be judged.
In the NIV Study Bible, 10th Edition, it says:
7:1 Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 7:2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
7:3 Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eyes? 7:4 How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye', when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 7:5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then y ou will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.
He knows we will judge by nature. He just warns us how that will come back on to ourselves.

Human nature is the problem. Very rarely do we like to hear that we may be wrong so some people either intentionaly of not use the judgement card as a defence mechanism. On the other hand, it is alright to judge one's actions and not one's heart as long as we are following God's word. Even when you aren't judging anyone, sometimes you can sound like you are.
