It's the idea that you do not judge a person for sins that are less than your own. Also, though this passage does not refer to it, there is another section of the Bible that states that only God has the right to pass divine judgment (particularly condemnation), and that is specifically what I focus on. It aggravates me to hear people claim "so-and-so is going to Hell" for a "sin" they committed.
And for the record, I am unreligious, but battling Christians with their own Bible is a great experience.

I understand throwing the bible back at people, I know it's a little late, but the crusades definatley broke "Thou shalt not kill."
