Or do they do things like cheating on their wives/husbands. Beat their children. Steal money. Drink beer. Eat too much. Watch porn. Flip people off on the freeway?

Just to add a little clarification - I never have said I was perfect.

I can tell you that many people of my faith eat too much. As a Mormon, we don't drink, but we do like our food. ; )
But as for the rest, the people I know of my faith who would do them are few and far between. Seriously, isn't one of the major points of religion to teach us to be better people and lose our bad behaviors?
So no, everyone isn't perfect, but I'd say 95% of the members who come to church regularly are working on behaving progressively better on a daily basis.

Nobody's perfect....it doesn't matter what religion you're asking about.
God is perfect, and He sent His Son as the perfect sacrifice to atone for our sin. Therefore, anyone who accepts Christ as their Savior is washed clean by His blood and seen by God as perfect in Christ, regardless of whatever sin they may be guilty of in the flesh. Repentance results in forgiveness

I can't say what people in my church do, because I don't live with them. What they do behind closed doors is between them and God. I would hope and pray that they do not do any of the the things you mentioned, but the only one who is perfect is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

No one is perfect except Jesus and He is in Heaven. People make mistakes. Your question sounds like your speaking of being an out and out sinner. But no people aren't perfect in any religion!

Only Prophet Mohammad (saw) was perfect. We can only but strive for near perfection. The examples you have mentioned above happens in all religions.

Wow. No way is everyone in my religion perfect.
Anyone who claims that is nuts.

there is no one who is perfect in my opinion. Even JESUS lost HIS temper at the money changers in the Temple. Think about this question.
