In my opinion, I wouldn't say that every religious person is hypocrite just put in a state of suppression. We are humans and humans commit sins every so often. However, most religious people try to ignore that fact and pretend to be good. Scratch that last part. What I meant to say was they do their best to be good. If the people you've met who are religious are preachers then of course they're hypocrites. Preachers preach a lifestyle to others when it's possible that they don't listen to every word they're saying. A preacher is a hypocrite but not his followers, they're merely people who want to touch God, and there's nothing wrong with that.
I think you misunderstood the kind of people I was referring to. I saw real religious people in my life, who really do try their best to live by the book, they don't claim to be saints, but they try to follow the word as much as possible, I also never see them pass judgement on anyone. Its the other kind, and from what I noticed, the majority, who despite of claiming to be religious, do things on an everyday basis that are forbidden in the book, and not even trying to do things differently. They are also very judgmental if you tell them you're an atheist.
Those people you've observed who claim to be religious aren't. They're hypocrites. I've dealt with both of these types, people who try to live by the bible and people who claim they do but in actuality don't. The majority, as you've stated, are the hypocrites. While the ones trying to touch God are the real religious folks.
Is it normal that I believe most religious people are hypocrites?
