Well, they believed what they were saying. Willfully ignorant, yes; hypocritical, not according to my understanding of what hypocrisy is, a form of lying. Televangelists who pocket the public's contributions are hypocrites. Billy Graham, who may have been unique in this regard, was not one. I think it's important to split these hairs as scrupulously as possible. There are more than enough bad names to call Fundamentalist whack jobs like Dallmann without borrowing one that doesn't really fit. (Though it may fit him for all I know.)
