One of the main reasons I left the Baptist church - the hypocrisy. I'd see girls acting so holy on Sunday mornings, and I'd seen them blowing their boyfriends the nigh before in McDonald's parking lot. There's not a big enough casty.
That, and when the minister told us one Sunday how we all should vote in an upcoming election. That crossed a line for me.
Here's the thing. Christians are people, just like everybody else. They have premarital sex, often with numerous people. I sin, and I know this about myself. I'm just not a hypocrite about it. I also try not to be judgmental.
If your friend is having fun, good for him. I just hope he's not using that site solely to get laid.

Lol, ME TOO!!! I was raised Baptist from an infant, then thank goodness my family left & joined the Presbyterian church when I was a teenager. Just could not stomach the hypocrisy anymore, nor the minister's hypocrisy when it became public knowledge that he had been having an affair with the secretary of our county's Southern Baptist Association for years, all the while judging others.

I couldn't agree more.

O yes. And their nothing wrong with a girl sucking off a guy in a parking lot... just the charade about doing it while lambasting other for it and using what you think is the only savior of man kind as justification. The hypocrisy is infuriating and obnoxious.

"That, and the minister told us all how we should vote one Sunday"
Although I'm pretty conservative on most political issues,this also irritates me very much. The corporate Church needs to focus on improving itself and its members and making extra sure what they are teaching and promoting is Biblically sound rather than railing against sinful activity in the country at large. That's what I find offensive about the Religious Right political movement. Churches shouldn't be involved in politics anyway. After all, Jesus said go therefore and make disciples...............". He didn't say go out there and become politically active and crusade against sin or sinful laws out in the world. At some point in the 20th century, the Church (especially the Baptist Church) lost sight of its true mission to "make disciples" and instead divided much of their time to various self righteous, political crusades which has caused them to lose their true mission and the Church as a whole has suffered for it.

Like Arklamissy, I grew up Baptist but switched to Presbyterian later on. Although they can be involved in politics, they tend to focus much less on it and the doctrine seems more Biblically sound.
