A big problem I have with those who 'claim' to be Christians (including other religious factions), is the rank hypocrisy so often shown by a lot of them. I know all too many who don't bother to even try to follow the tenets of their religion, when it comes to the way others are treated. I'm also tired of hearing, after their hypocrisy is pointed out and they make it plain that they don't plan on changing a thing, their refrain/excuse of..."I'm not perfect, just forgiven." As if that should excuse their disgusting/abhorrent actions (or support of those who take those actions) toward others now - while still expecting some kind of everlasting utopia. At the same time, I truly admire those who actually 'walk the talk.'
