I don't think you need to know you are hypocrite to be hypocrite.

Hypocrite [hip-uh-krit]

noun

1.

a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, especially a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.

2.

a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.

So, yes, he would have to be aware.

I'd say you're clear to tell his wife that he's acting this way. Hell, I'm spiteful enough to say that if he's morally guiding a group of people like this, then he's a hypocrite in that regard. But if you drop the bomb on him regarding your status, I think you'll only push him deeper into an irrational hate - he'll feel deceived, angry, blame you. I don't imagine it'll improve anything for him to know that.

You're right. He feigns Christianity (a "publicly approved attitude"), therefore "he pretends to have religious beliefs that he does not actually possess."

He's a hypocrite. But, as you can see even in this thread, Christians' willingness to excuse other Christians' improprieties is without discernible delimitation. It's best not to try and make a Christian this deluded --or anyone this deluded-- feel guilty; no matter what, someone this infantile will not feel guilt. He may feel bad, temporarily, but inevitably he'll redirect his guilt at you --like he's already doing to people he knows are LGBT-- and you'll be the worse for it.

If you can ruin him, and you want to, then do that; but, reasoning with him is futile. People who project their guilt onto entire segments of the population will certainly project their guilt onto the one person who's directly caused it, and act accordingly.
