The Christian Left (Facebook page)
In the sermon on the mount Jesus is basically saying, "You want to go around worrying about other people's sins? Fine. Here's the standard you need to use for yourself first … If you hate your brother, it's the same as murder, etc." He's saying that when you've achieved perfection, then you can judge. Of course he knew that none of us is capable of achieving perfection. Conservative Christians like to walk around and say, "Well, if we truly love people then we must correct their sinful behavior." WRONG. Any human attempt to "correct the sinful behavior" of others only looks like blatant hypocrisy given that we all sin.
