Those who are vociferously Christian, or vociferously Buddhist, often manage to be both sanctimonious and unsavoury individuals, though the best example I ever came across was someone who wasn't religious but who shoved her secular do-goodery in your face at every opportunity.

Velociraptor Dec 2008 11:20am, 11 Dec 2008 5,392 posts	0 Velociraptor Indeed, Chris. I think people interpret religious teaching according to what fits best with their own personality Which means, of course, that some of the loveliest people I've known - some real I-want-to-be-like-you people - have also been Christians. But it's not their faith that makes them lovely, it just gives them a hook on which to hang their kindness and tolerance.
