such hypocrites,after all all they are both wrong,my god does not ask me to kill in his name,nor does he expect me to be perfect,also he knows that humans make mistake and is aways forgiving,he does not like the idea of anyone worshipping idols,nor wearing silly clothes which people think that he wants,no huge monolithical buildings ,in fact he prefers a one on one connection,no one on this earth is closer to god than all of us as individuals,and he just expects all of us to try and do the right thing.

They're delusional.

That matches Biblical Christianity to a T.
The only thing that God "demands" of His followers is that they accept His gift of salvation. After that, try to be as good as you can.
I don't associate with any Christian denomination, which means I don't get stuck in the legalism.
The Bible says that God wants a 1 on 1 relationship with you, understands that you aren't perfect, will forgive your mistakes, doesn't like idol worship, couldn't care less about fancy outfits or special buildings, or killing in His name.

Your god their god they are all the same god. Take peter for example, his boss calls him mr smith, his wife calls him honey his son calls him daddy, and his friends call him pete. They would all describe him differently too. Yet he is the only one person. The same goes with god names. You need to stop throwing stones, YOUR god may not expect you to be perfect but i assume he would expect you to follow the universal law of karm and also to love all fellow humuns without judgement, do you not agree??? Therefore who is being a hypocrite today??

Well, I don't know where you get the idea that God expects perfection from me, and I'm a Christian. I also have no idea which God you worship, but I worship God through Jesus Christ, who is God. So . . . cool, huh?
EDIT . . . . And if you aren't a hypocrite, then what do you need God for?

God does not ask me to kill in his name.
God does not expect me to be perfect.
God is the most forgiving and the most merciful.
God is who i worship, Idol worship is the biggest sin in my faith.
God wants me to dress modestly.
God is all around even though we have places of worship it is not a requirement of my faith to pray or worship there. Worshiping God is what you do and behave in your day to day living.
God and i have a one to one connection.
God always wants me to do and to try my best.
So as you can see every "point" you have made is totally redundant. I don't know who "your" God is and you are welcome to worship whoever you like, no skin of my nose. But don't tell me who my God is.
Don't tell me what my God wants.
Don't tell me what God expects of me.
Don't tell me I worship Idols.
I practice my faith which is Islam and none of what you said has any validity at all.
Maybe if you knew the first thing about Islam you would know you are talking rubbish. Its evident that your knowledge on the faith is minimal if not non existent.
And who are you to tell me i am wrong?
I do what God tells me to do, i follow his guidelines and for you to tell God he is wrong, well that's your own baggage to deal with.
There is only one God and he is the creater of everything in heaven and earth.
Whatever or whoever your God is, is between you and him. I would never be so condecending to tell someone there faith is wrong.

In the first place, your question is premised on wrong proposition and perception.
I am Christrian and I relate to Him individually. He expects me to do my best the right way and He will do the rest what is good for me.

Sure, there are hypocrites among Christians and Muslims, just as there are among those of other religions, including yours. But how does the existence of hypocrites validate your religious beliefs about this god you spoke about?

Love the question.
"Why are all christians and muslims hypocrites?"
Irony!
Anyway, true christians don't kill in the name of God, neither do they worship idols, neither do they wear silly clothes. It's a personal relationship with God. When you have a relationship with him, you strive to follow him with your whole heart and lead others to him. Plain and simple.

I think a person should have to be perfect before calling someone else a hypocrit.

I don't see the difference between what you wrote and the Christian God.
