Gossip is everywhere, church isn't an exception. We only magnify church gossip because we feel the church is supposed to be a holy and perfect gathering, hence, we fail to remember that those who make up the church are imperfect people (even pastors). Funny question though.

But there is no gossip in the mosques.
If pastors are not perfect like others,why do they call themselves prophet of God?

prophet of God means sent by God, it does not make you equal to God.. There is no one that is perfect, even if you pray ten times it doesn't make you perfect. Only God can determine who is perfect.

The church is a conglomerate of different people, differenti thinking, different ideology. You don't expect everyone to behave alike. Even if sermons are preached against gossip which the bible kick against, many will still gossip. There are some persons that can't do without gossip. I use to think women were the only ones but my hope dashed out when I see men talking for hours. It is part of the system

That they are prophets doesn't mean the human nature isn't in them. That is why many still fall into sin because they are human and not spirit. An example is Moses in the bible. He was a prophet of God yet he went astray. Did God still use him? Yes.A prophet of God is like every other person on this earth. What differentiate them from others is the oil they have on their head.

Thanks for your reply.My comment was based on Islamic perspective,Muslims also believes that no one is perfect as you have mentioned.
But we doesn't call every preacher a prophet apart from the ones Allah has mentioned in the Qur'an.
