I don't see how him being a misogynist holds any weight when Christians are supposed to follow the Law of Agape.

Saying that women and men are called to different vocations and different roles is not hateful. None-the-less, I have not claimed that one should blindly accept what Paul says; merely that the off-hand dismissal is absurd.
Those who have blindly accepted his words, have treated women like property for the past hundred years.
Good thing I didn't advocate that then, eh?

neutral Again we are called to follow Christ's Law of Agape not Paul. Paul is not Christ.
Christ whom never condemned judgment without context; and who has praised judgment in some.
So he cannot possibly be enlightened. And Christ's bidding of him to go forth and teach? Pointless because, of course, he has nothing to offer. It's not he that will save us.
Quote:
And Matthew 7:1-2 still applies.
Matthew 7:1-2
For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with the measure which ye measure with, it shall be measured to you again.
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye,
but considerest not the beam that is in thy own eye?
Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thy eye; and, behold, a beam [is] in thy own eye?
Thou hypocrite,
first cast out the beam out of thy own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
I fail to see a blanket condemnation of judgment here.
Quote:
We are not to judge others (THEIR SOULS) or else we get his with the same punishment.
I have already spoken against such judgment. To judge a man's soul is the realm of God, and to take it upon one's self is arrogant and self-righteous. By-the-by, the Paul you so despise spoke against this. Judging something as sinful does not judge a man's soul.

John 7:21-24.
Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.
Moses therefore gave to you circumcision; (not because it is from Moses, but from the fathers
wink and ye on the sabbath circumcise a man.
If a man on the sabbath receiveth circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have restored a man to sound health on the sabbath?
Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
Here we are told to judge whether something is a sin, but judge it in the context of the Spirit of the Law, not the word of the Law. To judge it righteously.
1. Don't use KJV. We don't live in the 15th century. No need to use thees and thous.
Irrelevant. None-the-less, I shall humor you:
John 7:21-24 NIV
Jesus said to them, "I did one miracle, and you are all astonished. Yet, because Moses gave you circumcision (though actually it did not come from Moses, but from the patriarchs), you circumcise a child on the Sabbath. Now if a child can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me for healing the whole man on the Sabbath? Stop judging by mere appearances, and make a right judgment."
John 7:21-24 New American Standard Bible
Jesus answered them, "I did (Z)one deed, and you all marvel. For this reason (AA)Moses has given you circumcision (not because it is from Moses, but from (AB)the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a man.(AC) If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath so that the Law of Moses will not be broken, are you angry with Me because I made an entire man well on the Sabbath? Do not (AD)judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment."
John 7:21-24 English Standard Version
Jesus answered them, "I did(AD) one work, and you all marvel at it. 22(AE) Moses gave you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but(AF) from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath. 23If on the Sabbath a man receives circumcision, so that the law of Moses may not be broken,(AG) are you angry with me because on the Sabbath I made a man’s whole body well? 24(AH) Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment."
John 7:21-24 Interlinear Bible
Jesus answered and said to them, I did one work and you all marvel. Because of this Moses has given you circumcision; not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers. and on a sabbath you circumcise a man. If a man receives circumcision on a sabbath, so that the Low of Moses is not broken, are you angry with me because I made a man entirely sound on a sabbath? Do not judge according to sight, but judge righteous judgment.
If these are still unsatisfactory to you, please look

2. I have serious doubts that the original text actually says that Jesus praised righteous judgment.
Argument from Ignorance. I invite you to prove that this is not the case.
John 7:24 <- EDIT
I had misplaced this. >.<
Quote:
3. The rest of Matthew 7 provides examples on why you SHOULDN'T judge.
I disagree. I see it as giving context to judgment. That there are other places in the text that condone judgment, when it is righteous (but not self-righteous, hubristic), assists in leading me to this conclusion.
Quote:
4.Judging someone as sinful is making a judgment of their soul. If they are sinful then so is their soul.
Judging something as sinful, and judging someone as committing a sin, does not judge a person as God will.

5. I don't get how you got judgment out of Shakespearean. I mean seriously. It's a foreign language to me. I speak modern English.

Shakespearean is Modern English, technically.
