We all have different "temperaments," and so different tolerance levels. And so while one Christian might advise another, even correct them,I'd say taking into account that some things might have come "easier" to them, but might come "harder" to another, they can point out things if trying to help them but I don't think the" judgement attitude" is good for either party. For the person being judgemental, remember,"Therefore, you are inexcusable oh man if you judge" and "judge not that you be not judged".And for the person being judged, it might have an opposite effect--the person , who has trouble dealing with the original problem, now has the second problem of a person ridiculing them,shunning them, etc.And that might make them "defensive" and actually turn them off to what would have been an otherwise good message.Let's leave the judgement to God.Request is for them to realize that.{"And I will take out your stony heart and give you a heart of flesh".

Sometimes judging can be one of the hardest things not to do.
We try to honorably persue the well-being, the prosperity, and the edification of every person with Love and no hidden agenda, we sometimes fall short. Our good intentions not only fell by the wayside but it often becomes entangled by other complicated issues such as hurt and yes, judging. I recently caught myself in that cycle.
I would say if the initial intention was indeed honorable; then forgive and start over. If you don't know what the other person's intent was, forgive and start over. And if you know that their intent was less than honorable...be wise but still forgive and start over.

Judging and correcting are two different things. Correcting a person places them back on course (if done amicably) but judging is passing a verdict -the deed is done and this is your consequence.

With anything you do, place the other person's well-being in mind and edify them.

I thought by putting it out there it might awaken the ones doing it and they might alter their ways.But another thing sometimes I notice if I post something with a little "depth" they dont know how to react and either pass it up or post the"form reply"I prayed for this .In Jesus name.Amen."Even on my blogs I've posted a subject and I sometimes get "apples to oranges" responses,leading me to believe that they sometimes "breeze through" the posts in a hurried fashion,.Or at times there is none of the "main ones" on the site,or very few people, and I get hardly any responses, and 18 minutes later an "Articles" automated response pops up.So sometimes I feel my posts aren't getting as much "oomph" as they could.

You have a lot of wisdom

Wisdom:​

James 1:5

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.

James 3:17

But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere.

Proverbs 3:13-18

Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold. She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. ...

Proverbs 1:7

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.
