So I could be a good person and help others but I will burn in hell, but a murdering rapist or someone similar will go to heaven just because he/she believes in Jesus?? I find that repulsive and plain stupid. Christians want everyone else but themselves to be perfect. This is not a generalization, it is a fact. The bible says the only way to god is through Christ. That in itself is filled with hypocrisy, you can’t argue it.

(Let me note that I am not responding with anger or lashing out on you. I'm simply enlightening you to the falacy of your statements in hopes to give you a better understanding of a true Christian belief.)
First of all you can't just "believe" in Jesus and expect to get in so there goes your whole argument right there. You don't know what you are talking about. You cannot get into heaven through faith alone. Faith being believing in Christ...you also have to have works...faith without works is almost meaningless. Christians do not want everyone else but themselves to be perfect because no one can be perfect. I already told you that. You're basing your opinions on fundamental beliefs. So that is a generalization because I myself am a Christian and I do not expect you to be perfect. I don't even expect myself to be perfect.

I can't argue it? Think about what you just said. Do you even know who Christ is? Christ is basically the human manifestation of all that God represents. So how is it that the only way to God through him is a hypocrisy in and of itself? I don't think you quite grasp the definition of hypocrisy enough to be throwing the word around so authoritatively. Maybe you should look it up again.
Asta!!
