When people try and act all superior to you, saying they would never do that? All you can do is smile and say never say never. But, in reality, what they have done is far worse then the person they are casting down for having such behavior or making a statement they don't enjoy.

It's called 'denial', and it ain't just a river in Egypt no more, Amazon.

Ever hear of self-righteousness? It's just a twisted mind
game humans play to try and get the attention OFF of their
own screwing up.
It's the Devils thinking. Because when they always talk about
others. It only gets the attention ON them!

Don't you think it is easier to see and disapprove of someone else than it is to fix yourself? Aren' t YOU doing the same thing with YOUR observation? And me, too?
I think it is harder to fix yourself, to figure out how to be happy and content with yourself and yor life, body, talents, and difficulties, and so everyone has a tendency to look out side of themselves to find someone else to pick on.
My advice? Spend your time and energy figuring out why YOU do things, and how to love yourself, and make the most of your life. Reach out to others in kindness and compassion, and you will live in a lovely world. As long as you do other people's inventory you are wasting time you could be using well.

It's human nature to want to feel superior to other people,a
kind of false pride. There are a lot of hypocrites in the world.

The word is hipocrites. They are mentioned in the Bible. They like pointing the finger at other people and pretending they are perfect. I guess by making other people look bad, they think they're making themselves look like a big deal.

Because they live in an area filled with sinful stones.

It is human nature....we want to criticize others and overlook our own faults. We want to supress our sins. It is too painful otherwise. However, wise men keep their mouths shut and their arms in a wide embrace of acceptance and tolerance.

To take the attention off themselves. So they can feel less guilt over their sin, (your sin is worse than mine, so I must be better in God's eyes).

Its part of the hypocracy of their life. Some people can never accept themselves and the mistakes they've made, so they try to "improve" everyone else instead.

Erm - that's pretty much the Republican way - decry molesting children whilst molesting children etc.
You've really just gone to the nitty gritty of it all - hyprocrisy.
Hate it - but so very many people - particularly Christians, engage in it...
