Because someone related a story they are bitter? Unless you believe this fellow made it up and is a complete list, then I don't see how bitterness figures in here. (Of course it is the internet so all info is considered dubious).
However it is simple fact that that many folks who live by the outward standards and are thus well accepted within the church, do not consistently live out the holiness they project through outward adornrment and conformity.
