I'm not going to have anything to do with the church because it's full of hypocrites. I suppose most of the people who use that line think they invented it. It's a handy phrase that gets a person off ones back, when others attempt to influence them in the direction of regular church attendance. The simple statement that one abhors hypocrisy is supposed to absolve an individual from moral responsibility. The rationale seems to be this.
Open sin is o. k.
It's only wrong when you try to cover it up. I will certainly concede the fact that hypocrites occupy pews. You could also say that hospitals have dying people among their patients. Hospitals don't exist to promote dying. Because they promote wellness, they naturally attract the sick and the dying.
