The most judgmental of all people are the fundamental Evangelicals, going against their bible. Next come the members of Soka Gakkai who go against the Lotus Sutra and Nichiren

Bible: “Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye. (Matt. 7:1-5)

Nichiren: At the time of his extinction, the World-Honored One of Great Enlightenment lamented, “Now I am about to enter nirvana. The only thing that worries me is King Ajātashatru.” Bodhisattva Kāshyapa then asked him, “Since the Buddha’s mercy is impartial, your regret in dying should stem from compassion for all living beings. Why do you single out only King Ajātashatru?” The Buddha replied, “Suppose that a couple has seven children, one of whom falls ill. Though the parents love all their children equally, they worry most about the sick child.”1 T’ien-t’ai, commenting on this sutra passage in his Great Concentration and Insight, said “Even if the parents of seven children are never partial, they are still particularly concerned about the sick one.” In essence, the sutra is saying that, even if there are many children, the parents’ hearts are with the child who is ill. To the Buddha, all living beings are his children. Among them, the sinful man who slays his own parents and becomes an enemy of the Buddha and the sutras is like the sick child." - Winter Always Turns to Spring

"The Chinese sage kings Yao and Shun were impartial toward all people. They manifested one aspect of Buddhahood within the human world. Bodhisattva Never Disparaging saw the Buddha in everyone he met, and Prince Siddhārtha was a human who became a Buddha. These examples should help you believe." - The True Object of Worship

Lotus Sutra: "The father knew that his son’s outlook was gradually becoming broader and more magnanimous,.." -Lotus Sutra Chapter 4 Belief and Understanding

"The fact that I have attained impartial and correct enlightenment and can save living beings on a broad scale is all due to Devadatta*, who was a good friend.” - Lotus Sutra Chapter 12 Devadatta

*The evil enemy of the Buddha. To me, the top leaders of the Soka Gakkai and High Priests of the Nichiren Shoshu are my best friends.
