Sint-Janskathedraal in Den Bosch. I found some pilaarbijting gargoyles! Preliminary research points to the pilaarbijter as a symbol of the hypocrite. It is also a delicious Belgian ale.
Tim Gunn is always going on and on about how he hates half-pants, but he made a concession for this show, showing how much of a hypocrite he really is.
You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

Formerly educated and employed as a graphic artist I’ve had the opportunity to work with many wonderful clients including Public Television, Human Rights Campaign, but I became frustrated creating throw-away-art in the form of public service announcements and designing for the client, who has all the say. Eschewing art schools with their labyrinthine structures and syllabi based on obtaining academic units and defying the class distinctions pervading the art world-I made my transition from graphic designer to Artist with aplomb. Now I’m creating art for art’s sake, I bring my voice, my view.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
Matthew 23:27
Life is not like camouflage ... in front of other talk behind other talk ... same also with hypocrite man that name.
Live at Brixton Academy, 19th June 2008. This is how I viewed a not insignificant portion of the show. I know it's probably hypocritical of me to complain about it given that I've just uploaded some video and around 25 photos from the show, but if you're going to take photos at a live show, don't even bother thinking about using a camera phone, know how your own camera works to get a good ratio of duds to gooduns and for the love of god unless you are right up against the front of the stage the flash is USELESS. And unless there is a costumer change you don't need to take photos every. single. song. She still looks the same in each one you know.
In this dictionary Bierce compiles the canon of human weaknesses, prejudices, absurdities and habits. The subtle, nasty ''definitions'' of words expose the very aspect in them that normal consciousness hypocritically tries to cover up. Over 1,000 barbed and brilliant definitions by the 19th-century journalist and satirist often called "the American Swift."
First published as "The Cynic's Word Book" (1906) and later reissued under its preferred name in 1911, Bierce's notorious collection of barbed definitions forcibly contradicts Samuel Johnson's earlier definition of a lexicographer as a harmless drudge. There was nothing harmless about Ambrose Bierce, and the words he shaped into verbal pitchforks a century ago--with or without the devil's help--can still draw blood today.
The American writer Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914) had not only a sharp tongue, but also a pointed feather. He was one of the most dazzling figures in 19th-century literary America - the personified provocation and a hateful cynic who left no subject out. No matter whether it was about general, small or great weaknesses of the human race - nothing was sacred to his mockery. He became famous with his "Devil´s Dictionary", a collection of gallant and pointedly spiritual aphorisms.
The size of the eBook is about 180 pages.

Death and the Miser
c. 1485/1490
Hieronymus Bosch
Netherlandish, c. 1450 - 1516
In this panel Bosch shows us the last moments in the life of a miser, just before his eternal fate is decided. A little monster peeping out from under the bed–curtains tempts the miser with a bag of gold, while an angel kneeling at the right encourages him to acknowledge the crucifix in the window. Death, holding an arrow, enters at the left.
Oppositions of good and evil occur throughout the painting. A lantern containing the fire of Hell, carried by the demon atop the bed canopy, balances the cross which emits a single ray of divine light. The figure in the middle ground, perhaps representing the miser earlier in his life, is shown as hypocritical; with one hand he puts coins into the strongbox where they are collected by a rat–faced demon, and with the other he fingers a rosary, attempting to serve God and Mammon at the same time. A demon emerging from underneath the chest holds up a paper sealed with red wax — perhaps a letter of indulgence or a document that refers to the miser's mercenary activities.
This type of deathbed scene derives from an early printed book, the Ars Moriendi or "Art of Dying," which enjoyed great popularity in the second half of the fifteenth century. The panel may have been the left wing of an altarpiece; the other panels — now missing — would have clarified the meaning of some aspects of the scene, such as the discarded and broken armor and weapons in the foreground.
More information on this painting can be found in the Gallery publication Early Netherlandish Painting, which is available as a free PDF www.nga.gov/content/dam/ngaweb/research/publications/pdfs...

The National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC is a world-class art museum that displays one of the largest collections of masterpieces in the world including paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, sculpture, and decorative arts from the 13th century to the present. The National Gallery of Art collection includes an extensive survey of works of American, British, Italian, Flemish, Spanish, Dutch, French and German art. With its prime location on the National Mall, surrounded by the Smithsonian Institution, visitors often think that the museum is a part of the Smithsonian. It is a separate entity and is supported by a combination of private and public funds. Admission is free. The museum offers a wide range of educational programs, lectures, guided tours, films, and concerts.
The original neoclassical building, the West Building includes European (13th-early 20th century) and American (18th-early 20th century) paintings, sculptures, decorative arts, and temporary exhibitions. The National Gallery of Art was opened to the public in 1941 with funds provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The original collection of masterpieces was provided by Mellon, who was the U. S. Secretary of the Treasury and ambassador to Britain in the 1930s. Mellon collected European masterpieces and many of the Gallery’s original works were once owned by Catherine II of Russia and purchased in the early 1930s by Mellon from the Hermitage Museum in Leningrad.
The core collection includes major works of art donated by Paul Mellon, Ailsa Mellon Bruce, Lessing J. Rosenwald, Samuel Henry Kress, Rush Harrison Kress, Peter Arrell Browne Widener, Joseph E. Widener, and Chester Dale. The Gallery's collection of paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, sculpture, medals, and decorative arts traces the development of Western art from the Middle Ages to the present, including the only painting by Leonardo da Vinci in the Americas and the largest mobile created by Alexander Calder.
The NGA's collection galleries and Sculpture Garden display European and American paintings, sculpture, works on paper, photographs, and decorative arts. Paintings in the permanent collection date from the Middle Ages to the present. The Italian Renaissance collection includes two panels from Duccio's Maesta, the tondo of the Adoration of the Magi by Fra Angelico and Filippo Lippi, a Botticelli work on the same subject, Giorgione's Allendale Nativity, Giovanni Bellini's The Feast of the Gods, Ginevra de' Benci (the only painting by Leonardo da Vinci in the Americas) and groups of works by Titian and Raphael.
The collections include paintings by many European masters, including a version of Saint Martin and the Beggar, by El Greco, and works by Matthias Grünewald, Cranach the Elder, Rogier van der Weyden, Albrecht Dürer, Frans Hals, Rembrandt, Johannes Vermeer, Francisco Goya, Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, and Eugène Delacroix, among others. The collection of sculpture and decorative arts includes such works as the Chalice of Abbot Suger of St-Denis and a collection of work by Auguste Rodin and Edgar Degas. Other highlights of the permanent collection include the second of the two original sets of Thomas Cole's series of paintings titled The Voyage of Life, (the first set is at the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute in Utica, New York) and the original version of Watson and the Shark by John Singleton Copley (two other versions are in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Detroit Institute of Arts).

Andrew W. Mellon, who pledged both the resources to construct the National Gallery of Art as well as his high-quality art collection, is rightly known as the founder of the gallery. But his bequest numbered less than two hundred paintings and sculptures—not nearly enough to fill the gallery’s massive rooms. This, however, was a feature, not a failure of Mellon’s vision; he anticipated that the gallery eventually would be filled not only by his own collection, but also by additional donations from other private collectors. By design, then, it was both Andrew Mellon and those who followed his lead—among them, eight men and women known as the Founding Benefactors—to whom the gallery owes its premier reputation as a national art museum. At the gallery’s opening in 1941, President Roosevelt stated, “the dedication of this Gallery to a living past, and to a greater and more richly living future, is the measure of the earnestness of our intention that the freedom of the human spirit shall go on.”

Isn't it time for American Hypocrites to stop funding repression!!
Interior minister denies to parliament that police used rubber bullets to break up recent protests
Until I draw my last breath on this earth
And death it takes me as is promised from your birth
I know I got so much living to do
I'll be so long asleep the lord I'll pray my soul to keep
A place to stay the lord shall grant me sanctuary
For peace of mind the lord I'll ask for sanity
Seek and I shall find a place of rest for sanctity
Save us from imbeciles who think they rule the world
Save us from hypocrites whose twisted plans unfurl
Save us from warmongers who'd bring on Armageddon
Save us from all of those whose eyes are closed
To the plight of the African child
We get along it's all about the chemistry
Up there way beyond the mere exchange of pleasantries
Please don't she'd no tears it's all about the energy
Save us from imbeciles who think they rule the world
Save us from hypocrites whose twisted plans unfurl
Save us from warmongers who'd bring on Armageddon
Save us from all of those whose eyes are closed
To the plight of the African child
A place to stay the lord shall grant me sanctuary
For peace of mind the lord I'll ask for sanity
Seek and I shall find a place of rest for sanctity
Save us from imbeciles who think they rule the world
Save us from hypocrites whose twisted plans unfurl
Save us from warmongers who'd bring on Armageddon
Save us from all of those whose eyes are closed
To the plight of the African child
And so when all is said and done
I'll count my blessings spread my wings and fly, fly home

Unfortunately, truth is never told and if you are a poor country like Ethiopia, if you are not affluent, your concern becomes mute. The wretched and the second-class of this world are somewhat considered deficient and incapable of running their affairs. The tacit and unspoken opinion of Africa in the Western world and especially of Sub-Saharan Africa is shockingly condescending and mean. The blunt and candid opinion of Mr. Trump of African nations as shithole countries frankly is an opinion shared by many in the West. Liberals and progressives claim they are for justice and fairness, but when it comes to Africa, I am afraid their opinion is no different from Mr. Trump. One says it openly, bluntly and arrogantly and the other does it covertly, but the message is all the same. Africa is a forlorn, deplorable and dismal place, Africa is not important.
No, Africa is not a wretched continent and for sure Ethiopia is not a deplorable
country. Thanks, in many ways by self-inflicted wounds and hostilities aimed by Ethiopia’s external enemies the country has become the face of war, famine, division, and poverty. But Ethiopia is not just famine and poverty, it is not inconsequential country. It has laudable history and proud, independent, passionate and strong people. It is one of the oldest countries in the world. It is home of three major religious denomination, Christianity, Islam and Judaism.

31/07/02 SAY NO TO DRESS CODE IN WEST BENGAL ! REJECT THE POLITICS OF THREAT, VIOLENCE AND GOONDAISM II .
Friends, .
In a most shameful manner, the SFI has chosen to take resort to lies rather than apologizing to the .
student community for pursuing the politics of threat, violence and goondaism. Going by this parameter the .
lumpen SFI led hypocrite JNUSU's anti-student psyche has been bared naked. In the hour of need the JNUSU .
frustrated the demands of Mahi-Mandavi residents and when the students took an independent initiative the .
JNUSU could not digest it, venting its thus blunted anti-student venom by resorting to open violence. The ire of .
JNUSU was further accentuated by the fact that ABVP really took the cudgels on behalf of the Mahi-Mandavi .
tnmates and spear headed the student agitation. .
On b fng pulled up for brazen acts of violence the SFI Jed JNUSU has now resorted to ages long .
political strategy of denial and counter accusation as a face saving exercise. The real judges for ascertaining .
the truth va lue of the JNUSU accusations of the ABVP are the Mahi-Mandavi inmates who are an eye-witness .
of those unfortunate incidents of SFI lumpenlsm that rocked the JNU Campus. The students have already .
pronounced their verdict as the signature campaign carried out by SFI to absolve itself of the crime -on -.
campus received the most m eager response. Only 47 students in Mandavi and around same numbers in M ahl .
towed their live. It should be noted with special emphasis that the majority of those who signed are the .
'iycophant followers of the dictatorship of SFI. Moreover when it has come to light as to how the SFI .
demands the loyalty of students (I.e. by the fear of violent death as in West Bengal) this number too .
cannot be reliable at all. It should be noted that In order to swell the numbers of signatures in its favour .
the SFI led .JNUSU indulgent in fraudulent manner as it not only compelled students to sign but 13 of .
the non residents have signed and also penned fake signatures of some residents who had declined to .
sign. This sinister fraud is being brought to the cognizance of the JNU Administration along with .
requisite proof. .
The SFI has not only been anti-student but also has no respect for women. The fact which bears .
witness to it is that under its gobblesian aegis, girls on the campus have found themselves being molested for .
the maximum number of times and SFI cadres have already been punished for such offenses on several .
occasions. Under the present JNUSU dispensation It has acquired "the honour" of registering the maximum .
nurnber of sexual harassment cases. It has t even come out with any statem ent of solidarity with victim .
because of the clandestine sinister collusion with the accused. The most recent incident irr Rabindra Bharti .
University in West Bengal where SFI sought to impose dress-code on the girl students and on their .
refusal the violence committed by SFI goons is a know fact. The attempt of the SFI to whitewash the .
same speaks volumes of the utter disregard for democratic norms. The SFI has sought to give its most .
unconvincing and dubious clarification that the local SFI leaders have also demanded an 'enquiry'. The .
student community should take not of the statement of local SFI Secretary reported in the newspapers .
wherein he has emphatically asserted that refusal to abide by the dress-code shall not be tolerated. .
The SFI has once again in the most outrageous and criminal and communal fashion has come out with .
posters on the most unfortunate events in Gujarat thus trying to fan the already subsided communal flare-up .
calling once again for rioting in the following terms, "Phir khanjar chalane wala hai; phir khoon bahega .
sadakon par..." . This is how the left is trying to insite minority community in Gujarat and on the campus in pursuance of their vote-bank politics. .
A historical meticulous analysis of the role of SFI on the campus reveals that the aforesaid crooked .
manipulations are nothing new. It is very much understandable as to why the SFI is pursuing the politics of .
threat, violence and lumpensim. Owing to their failure to address any of the student problems on the campus It .
1s becoming difficult for the SFI led JNUSU day by day to face the questions raised by the common students .
which it is seeking to suppress by using brute force. The ABVP extends its thanks to the student community for .
participating in yesterday's Protest Demonstration in large numbers. We appeal to the student community to .
stand in solidarity with victimized student Sachidanand Mukharjee who is still going through the psychological .
shock and mental trauma. Let not SFI beguile you. .

"Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices — mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law: justice, mercy and faithfulness. Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence." Modified Michelangelo's "Crucifixion" in Gimp.
Nice that people were dancing. Although this will sound a little hypocritical as I was taking photos that also made a noise (trying to limit taking photos to loud musical sections). But some of these individuals, especially the woman nearest, were bad mannered individuals who showed the first band no respect by talking and laughing all the way through their set. Obviously they disappeared as soon as the band they’d come to see had been on. But it’s not too difficult to sit quietly through support bands and to give them a chance.
i'm feeling guilty and totally hypocritical about slagging off

excellent, extremely reasonable and most beautifully presented

So i'm coming clean and admitting that i'm not quite as anti-

i can't say i'm a fan of fast food on principle but have to admit to
regularly consuming it and, if nothing else, i admire their business

I super hate it when people post cat pictures, generally speaking, so I'm being a bit of a hypocrite here, I know; sorry about this one...
We're Only Human
A series of visual zines that explores hypocritical behaviours and our reactions in different scenarios. It aims to highlight our idiosyncratic behaviours, and act as a catalyst for self-reflection. The zines do not serve to condemn or praise the idea of hypocrisy, but instead to merely act as a mirror for behaviours that we barely give a second thought to.

An ironic and hypocritical statement is at the top of those columns "Equal Justice Under Law" well that hasnt held true for blacks, women, the unborn, and many others in this country. Perhaps this building would have been better built after the end of abortion.
