Is the relevance of hypocrisy exaggerated? While it is important in some cases, notably when propriety is an unavoidable issue, I do believe that people often exaggerate the relevance of hypocrisy, as a way of distracting from an issue. If the so called hypocrite has a sound premise and factual information, what does it matter if his character is suspect? Would you turn down assistance from anyone that didn't live a non contradictory life? I think it's self defeating stubbornity to ignore a hypocrite because you assume his faulty character makes what he says probable lies.
What are your thoughts on hypocrisy?
