I don't think that the people I know are secretly condemning their friends for being lax in their faith. It's like they feel constant guilt, and don't identify their bad situations as caused by the same things other peoples' bad situations are.

Kind of like chalking someone else's bad behavior up to character flaws but your own to bad circumstances.

Your point about certain denominations is well taken; my friends are almost exclusively one.
