Please correct my math then. · 0 minutes ago
Sure. Glad to. Out of every 100 Americans, 5 never had premarital sex (so they claim). 37 out of 100 say they believe premarital sex is morally wrong. (You have to ignore the ones who had premarital sex without believing it is wrong. They are not hypocrites. They are consistent.)
But 32 out of the 37 are hypocrites. They think premarital sex is wrong, but they did it anyway. That's why it is 5 out of 37 who are honest, and 32 out of 37 who are hypocrites. 5 out of 37 is not 33%. · 5 hours ago
They're not hypocrites if they regret it.
