Righteousness is one of the virtues of a religious man while hypocrisy is for the evil mind.

Hi, my name joshua kane, i am not jesus, jesus was just this kid that used to follow me around, back in the good old days - he would listen to my speeches and serve food, drink my wine and sometimes he would go for long walks to contemplate his belly button! Well, i am here to tell you about the TRONGOD, and the gospel of zerokane.THATS WHAT I WAS HERE FOR IN THE BEGINNING, but that pesky jesus, kept on bothering me. Mind you i reckon i got off lightly, you know what happened to jesus, although I was surprised that Judas grassed him up. they were lovers you know! Must have had an argument! It disturbs me a great deal that i have been forgotten, jesus that 'scamp', stole my ideas and ideals and passed them off as his own, obviously he changed a lot of my texts, facts and history, due to copyright reasons, but my disciples certainly were a little fickle, as soon as Jesus gave all that fish and bread , they were off, followed him around all day every day, 24 - 7, i think i had a lucky escape. Anyway, as i was saying, my god, my gospel is the true word! It must be true because I wrote it all in a book, but i found out recently that the 'vatican' are witholding it from publication, something about truth, reality, demise of the church and all that! Well, i'm back now, so they better be ready to apologise, give me back my book and do something about that whole 'jesus' thing. My dad says hello, and my mum is busy doing some blessings, dad isin the garden trying to make a better earth , the first one he made has really got disease infected. See you at EASTER!

Definitely not. No religion support such characteristics. The type of people you mentioned you will find in every field & every country with whatever region, not just in Yahoo Answers. Thankfully, they are of the minority. So, take heart!

Self-righteousness and hypocrisy are human traits.
Religions are human-created ideals of what they desire to be like, not of what they actually are.
No matter what their religion, or how hard they try, humans are human and full to the brim with flaws.

No they're pretty much part of the human nature. When people develop good character they try to reduce or eliminate those traits but they still make mistakes sometimes.

Oh I do agree with you. Destroying the religion or killing the god will NOT make the world a better or worse place, as long as it's still inhabited by humans.

They are certainly part of human nature, although religion provides the venue and opportunity for those traits to develop more.

NO, many people with a real faith are modest, gentle and sure of the things they believe.
You will find your characteristics daily in the media.

Is repeating the same question a religious characteristic?

They're certainly part of human nature, but religion does nothing to discourage them.
