Maybe these people need to read (Proverbs 6:16-19), from link I posted above, the following:
"These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue (gossip), and hands that shed innocent blood (murder), An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations (evildoer), feet that be swift in running to mischief (theft), A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren (busy body)."
