I've studied ALL religions and they are all hypocritical at some point. I finally decided to go with being a Unitarian and it's been the most accepting, least hypocritical that I've found. But there's no one that's perfect, you just have to find what works best for you.

Unfortunately the majority of people doesn't function on logic anymore.
Religion isn't hypocritical, people are.
Today the definition of "truth" is whatever you feel like it is. Now that is hypocritical.

The Christian religion is by far the most hypocritical.
Look how they combine the Old and New Testaments ! Diametrically opposite.

i think most are not hypocritical. the major scriptures teach to do harm to others.
though they also have contradictory doctrines. which is consistent with the religions. So I dont think there are any hypocritical religions. They reflect their teachings quite well.

A couple of questions first: Does one "feel" that someone is hypocritical, or does one think that? How are you defining "hypocritical?"

Surely it is the Judeo-Christian/Islamic tradition!
There has never been such a legacy of death masked in kindness could compare to what YHWH's followers have forged.

Judaism and its off-shoots:
All Abrahamic faiths except Bai'hism.
