You seem to think that I don't love Christians. I do. If I didn't why would I try to correct your misconceptions, misinterpretations of the bible and your hypocrisy when you don't follow the words you claim to believe in.

Less enthusiastic initiation of/participation in anti-Christian threads would begin to support your profession of love, Cliffy. Surely you've encountered Jesus' teaching concerning eye specks and logs in Matthew 7 and Luke 6.

Well, there is a lot of evidence showing that humans are hypocrites, especially the ones that say they are not hypocrites. And that is regardless of culture or philosophy. Rigid tenets seem to get broken and they are subject to circumstance. I can say that I would never kill another human, but then again, no-one has ever threatened my kids' lives, for instance. And then there are the people who just outright lie.

When I think of the H word I'm reminded of what the man told the Jewish religious leaders of his time and of his place. Mt. 23 is a good chapter. Telling others how they should act and live their lives while yet not doing so in their own lives. In other words, pretending to be something that you're not. My favorite part of that chapter, " you cross land and sea to make one convert, and you make them twofold more a child of hell as you are yourself". That can apply to many beliefs.

This isn't an anti Christian thread. It's an anti hypocrite thread. If Christian like Gerry or Petros choose to be hypocrites, that's their choice. Some Christine choose not to be

The title indicates otherwise. If not you would have labeled the thread " Hypocrites " and left it at that. If the thread was to be entitled " Jewish " Hypocrites ", it would be an anti Jewish thread. Don't back peddle now Mccain say what you mean and mean what you say,, Maynard.

Why would you be commenting on an anti hypocrite thread?

Forgive JLM. He's a bit slow. I live in SE Alberta. Christians are like mosquitoes and cow **** here. I put them in their place when they get out of hand.

A good example of you being out of hand and a liar is articulated in post # 84 of this thread. You'd do well just to keep your pie hole closed on the matter! :) :)

if it had been titled Human Hypocrisy it would have been to broad. There would have been no true subject matter. and would have ended up as urban sprawl with no definition.

If you feel uncomfortable with the title and feel it's a trigger of sorts then that might be something worth investigating further. so, good thing for this thread.

Stop being so silly.

I dunno. Hypocracy is nothing more than being pretentious. Pretending to be something that you're not...

No it isnt

the problem with hypocrisy it's always a claim made against another as a way of negating further dialogue.

"Stop being so silly" = "You are revealing one of my weaknesses, which is embarrassing to me, but I'm unable to substantiate any errors in what you are saying". :) :) :) :)

The thread title works as far as I'm concerned. Admittedly all people are hypocrites to some degree or another. It's just that it's usually the ideologues, whether religious or political, that are guilty of the grossest hypocrisies.
