Why are religious people such hypocrites?

[QUOTE="DrDeanCrosby, post: 2647265, member: 875516"] Although most Christians are NOT hypocrites some most certainly are so.For some the church has become a hide-out for scoundrels;it provides them with a safe and easy to access social gathering place to go where they will be free from close scrutiny and suspicion.The most extreme example of this phenomenon occurred in the BTK case which involved a serial murderer who had been elected President of his church which allowed him to have night access to the church where he took one of his victims so that he could murder her on the church alter. For others,their faith becomes an important psychological tool that they use to get the monkey of guilt off their back by believing that they are forgiven for all of their sins.A portion of this group then goes further into a church head trip by using Bible teachings to aggressively condemn others for engaging in the same sin they are emmessed in; a pathological guilt-reducing game.:stop glass: [/QUOTE]
