the only sin that requires you to actually know better
means The practice of claiming moral standards or beliefs you don't actually live up to, condemning in others what you quietly do yourself.
from From Greek hypokrisis, meaning 'acting on a stage' or 'playing a part' — a hypokrites was literally an actor, one who answers and speaks in dialogue beneath a mask. The word traveled through Late Latin and Old French into English, where the theatrical sense faded and the moral sense hardened: the hypocrite became someone performing virtue they don't possess, still wearing a mask, just no longer on a stage.
