If by "God" you mean the commonly-held notion of an omniscient, omnipotent being dwelling in Heaven (such as i was taught to 'believe in' at school) Who demands Worship and Obedience, then i would say yes He does judge us.
He is - after all - a judgemental God.
He is also a vengeful, spiteful God, as well as a mass-murdering God (if the reports of His exploits are anything to go by).


If, however, by "God" you mean the somewhat more civilised concept of god-as-intelligent-cosmos, then no, i don't think that it cares in the slightest about "judging", nor about "sin".

After all, it gave us free will to go our own way. No matter how long it takes for us to find our way to where we should be, the choices are ours to make.
In my opinion.


Peace, Love, & Light.
