I hate faux Christians

Those who think that being a Christian is going to church after putting on expensive clothing, saying "hi" to everyone else when prompted, putting money into the collection "tithe" plate, leaving, going home just to return to being the normal snots they are.

(I said 'hi' to a few of them when going to get my laundry and they acted as if they were better than the universe. How very Christian of them... which parallel universe did I come from again?)

2. wouldn't they be hypocrites

if they said hi and pretended to be friendly? Unfortunately, Christianity often does not translate into kindness towards strangers, maybe because our society is so full of fear and violence. But I get the same reaction when I go into bars by myself, or at fireman's dances - nobody talks to me. Usually someone will say hi when I am a new person at a church. My complaint is that they never seem to be more than Sunday friends, but I am probably the same way.

4. The word is "Hypochristianity"

I think a lot of them are just in it for the pseudo social life.
