[extropy-chat] Delusions of Hypocrisy

[Al Brooks]

Mike, i like your posts because you are direct,
unfortunately directness does not mean lack of
hypocrisy, if it did we would not be human, we'd be
something much more virtuous. Now, keep in mind there
is a difference between an intellectually dishonest
person and a hypocritical person. The latter is
universal; the former is less prevalent. Stating "I'm
NOT a hypocrite" is tantamount to saying, "I have
never done anything wrong in my life". Mike, however
integrated you are, you are still human; if we are
human, we are hypocritical.
This discussion makes me feel like I'm back in Sunday
School, 1964.
