Why do people gossip and try to humiliate others...?

I often have many people gossip about me, or ask me questions as if concerned but instead to humiliate me, especially older people from who you would expect some more class, they ask personal questions which have nothing to do with them, and they are looking forward to seeing you fail.Is it just the passive human nature of wanting power and stealing it from others, wanting to see others fail so that we can tell ourselves how much better we are than them, so that we can feel good about ourselves?
I have found that Some people gossip because it belittles others and makes them feel superior. It also creates for them an artificial seance of superiority. It is an foolish way to feed an ego.Another thing I have observed is that some people think they are being understanding and caring of the person that they go in detail about with someone else -in the name of religion.One of the quickest ways to spread a gossip is to tell someone at church. In the name of love and care they pass on information that actually is most often hurtful instead of caring. And the person who is talked about it hurt or damaged in ways that can't be easily mended.It is a wise person who can be strong in their own self without belittling others. A person who respects others to keep some information confidential.
