It is not hypocritical to openly oppose an organization of which you are a member to induce change. Or to learn. Or to flush out hidden meaning. Or whatever. (Whether the organization permits such dissent is another matter, but that matter is unrelated to hypocrisy.)
Ah but here is the crux of the problem. This organizatoin does not tolerate dissent at all really. You note below that much of what us hypocrites post here would get us de-admitted. So maybe there is this thing called fear. Maybe we are not ready to be de admitted.
But "openly" is the key. Hypocrisy arises when you say one thing in one venue and say another in a different venue. Or do one thing in one venue and do a different thing in a different venue. Jesus condemned hypocrisy more than any other sin, a detail I find interesting about the New Testament. I really suspect that few posters on this board read their New Testament.
Nah he did not. He talked about it a few times but more then any other sin. Hardly. Course sin is sin.
As long as you act consistent with your beliefs in all venues, you are not a hypocrite.
I highly doubt you or any other human acts consistent in ALL venues with all their beliefs. However, even Pres. Hinckley has said the members are free to believe and hold differing opinions about things LDS as long as they do not go preach it publicly.
But, if you use theashion as the Pharisees were; they will burn in hell and so will you, maybe. I'm not your judge. Combined with personal attacks against people with real names, be it Gordon B. Hinckley, or Boyd K. Packer, or Robert D. Crockett, not only are you a hypocrite you are a coward. "You" speaking generically and not necessarily you personally.
I see many people on this board who admit to being good members of the Church; admitting home teachers, and keeping their names on the records of the church when the things they say on this board would get them de-admitted. The only thing that protects them is the anonymity.
So, let me suggest that if you (generically) have any integrity and personal character at all, and want to post vicious things against the Church, then resign.
As noted before, for me personally, I have posted nothing here that I have not discussed with my SP and bishop and as for membership they are the ones that matter. Not you, not anyone else. So I will tell you to take your haughty suggestion and frankly, stick it.
If you want to post vicious things against living people, use your real name. But, you (you, personally) know what? Personal character and integrity is sharply wanting on this board.
I have difficulty thinking that a person who is, or was, a bishop so frequently suggestion members who have honest issues, and really nowhere to debate or air them safely, are encouraged to leave what he believes is the Lord's true church. Character indeed.
The savior I read about would encourage and love those who have questions and struggle. He really spent much more time talking about seeking and working with lost sheep rather then talking about hypocrisy. I also suggest that you consider the behavior of the religious leaders of the day was what he condemned as hypocrisy. Leaders that were rigid and more concerned about appearances rather then the inner heart. Then look in the mirrror.
