I suppose you know I was giving a famous Pope Francis quote?

Yes, I do know that Pope Francis said “Who am I to Judge?” But “not judging” does not mean “accept;” it acknowledges that there are some things that we do not understand, but it does not relieve us from our responsibility to help people avoid bad behaviors, regardless of our understanding of what leads them to those behaviors.

I don’t judge my brother for his gambling addiction, but I do try to help him avoid gambling situations.
