In order to judge God, I would have to be over God in every aspect or Have a knowledge from someone who is over Him. Since I do not I am not in a position in which to judge Him. So, if you don't mind would you help me understand how you come to know what is "good"?  I would then like to tell you how I have come to understand what is "good", so that we then would have together a better foundation onto which we can discuss morality and its implications upon humanity.

Since you have such a high ideal toward judging, I hope that you are of the logical sort that does not judge anyone else and rather leaves the judging to a higher authority.

I apologize if my statement seemed as though I disavowed judging, that was not the purpose behind that statement. (My previous statement was more about God's superiority over everything and my inability to judge Him from my position) Judgment is not something that should be done lightly, as you seem to recognize. One thing I don't have the inherent power to condemn anyone. Still, to make a judgment about a person's actions or mine can be done. Even that must be done with caution and experience. Many places in the Bible it tells us to judge correctly. If you condemn someone for something that you yourself do then that is being a hypocrite. Although if you recognize your sin, repent and fix the problem then when you judge someone then you come in humility and not in superiority. When you see someone struggling like you once did then in kindness, patience and love you can correct them. You come at them as person seeking the best for someone else. 

We all make judgments even your signature is a judgement. The question I ask you is what are your motives behind making judgements like your signature and why you trust your judgment.
