Who cares what people do? Doesn't it say in the Bible to judge not lest ye be judged? Too bad people don't see it that way.
You learn something new every day.

And I grew up and made my own observations. I found that the most hateful, bigoted, and narrow-minded people are not the conservatives but the liberals and leftists, and the latter respond to views that disagree with their own with harrassment and insults, since they often cannot respond with valid counterarguments. Atheists I have found love to think they are wiser than the religious, but often they are not and don't like to be told so. And as for the "open-minded", I have found out that they aren't. They're just closed-minded in a different way.

As for what the Bible said, I always took that verse to be ironic. Is there really anybody who doesn't judge other people? Of course there aren't. So I interpret that verse as saying that God judges people, and has the moral right to do so, because they judge others all the time.
