Are you asking for my advice?
Not at all. . . . :)
Such an interpretation seems so stifling in our social connections and contrary to natural discussion. Are we never to comment about another that has the least hint of criticism? To even try to follow this rule for any reasonable period in our lives would make conversation take on an air of unreality. Try conversing with someone about Stalin’s policy of executing his opponents or sending them to Siberia to die – all without any phrase critical of his personality or motivation being used; the resulting discussion would best be described as unrealistic or surreal.
Taking this interpretation in a very strict sense would so limit ordinary conversation that surely we should examine not just this interpretation of this verse, but the whole subject of judging others from a personal perspective.
