Some of the nicest people are those who are never in church, while some of the meanest are in church every Sunday. We have that here were I live - some of the nasty old pieces of work who love to shout their racism, homophobia, religious bigotry, and so on never miss Mass on Saturday evening or Sunday morning. Meanwhile if challenged they start in on how holy they are, how they'll always in church or how they belong to the reich to life.
