  Is it a hypocrisy, really?

  I don't think so.

  Preachers say things like, "We're all human," or
  "We're all sinful," and stuff.

  They say, "Live like Christ," but the well understood
  assumption that the person knows that they're probably
  going to fail, and fall from that ideal.  **And that's okay.**
  That's expected.

  So I don't see any hypocrisy there;
  Just holding ideals.

  I think it's great for people to hold ideals.
