A hypocrite is a person who states one thing but does another.
profess one belief while holding another.
To engage in hypocrisy means to act in a way that is different from your stated beliefs. Example: A woman in the USA who was active in anti-gang programs and was considered an expert on gangs was secretly ACTUALLY the LEADER of a teen gang that committed dozens of home robberies and sold drugs. She was engaged in hypocrisy. She PRETENDED to be concerned with stopping gangs, but was ACTUALLY running a gang (probably only interested in stopping the competing gangs from making money on her turf.)
Hypocrisy means saying one thing or holding a belief, and doing the opposite. The opposite of hypocrisy is honesty, straightforwardness, and sincerity.
The girl pretended to think about it, and using hypocrisy, tricked her friend into thinking that she would come.hypocrisy means saying, thing and doing another

In the novel "Fate of The Banished," religious hypocrisy is revealed through the actions of those who claim to follow a certain faith but do not adhere to its teachings in their behavior. This can be demonstrated through characters who display outward piety but engage in unethical or immoral actions, or through religious leaders who exploit their positions for personal gain. The discrepancy between professed beliefs and actual conduct highlights the theme of religious hypocrisy in the novel.
