Description
A friendly reminder from your neighborhood atheist who is reading the Bible:
Do not go about spreading slander among your people. Do not do anything that endangers your neighbor's life. I am the LORD. Leviticus 19:16
Besides, they get into the habit of being idle and going about from house to house. And not only do they become idlers, but also gossips and busybodies, saying things they ought not to. 1 Timothy 5:13
Do not judge, or you too will be judged. Matthew 7:1
The words of gossip are like choice morsels; they go down to a man's inmost parts. Proverbs 18:8
My recommendation:
I'll be on my way now.

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. Ephesians 4:29
I'll be on my way now.

That is true.
However, I must warn about the dangers of picking passages of the Bible without looking at the paragraph as a whole. For example, Matthew 7:
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye."
Picking the first line it seems like it's a passage against passing judgement. But looking at it as a whole, it's more against hypocritical judgements. ^^
