But I do know how to evolve from one place to the next based on who I am around. Some people would call that hypocrisy. I just call it being respectful.
While we attended our church, I kept the rules, and never complained about them. But once we left, I no longer kept them, because they were just out of respect for where we were and who we were under. The things I do out of respect for GOD haven't changed.
My point is--if someone is doing something because of what their pastor says or their church teaches, then it would be reasonable to think that when they are no longer under that pastor or attending that church, they will no longer adhere to those rules.
