or any religious leader, clergy person or you know any of those people.

I don't care about the article linked. Religious right, religious left whatever.

But I wonder do they all actually believe in god or it's just their job to make other believe and control them?  How about Presidents and world leaders?

I think even the local preacher just does it because it is his job.  
But for priests to renounce women. Now they're weird and crazy.

I know why I'm saying this now. I saw the old lady renting me a room praying today.
People I've known and people in my family I've seen they believe.

But those who make it a job.... I just don't trust them. Not even Laly Dama guy or whatever

Does DA reject jesus? I'm pretty damn sure a pope certainly does believe in god. Hard to live and breath in that environment without imo

As for presidents and world leaders, they may very well be acting it to win the trust of most citizens.  

Can you really compare politicians to the pope?

Could there have been a Pope before there was a god?  I'm pretty sure this is true.

I suspect many of those who make their living instilling religious conviction and belief in God, have lost the faith they once had; I really don't think many of them are as sociopathic as to start in such a career without some degree of faith, or their faith has become merely hope in there being a God, and heaven. To understand faith, you must understand how one develops, psychologically, emotionally, cognitively, etc. A good book on the matter is James Fowler, "Stages of Faith." I'm certain that you can find it in the local library you frequent.  

Is my side walk fair?

is that Pope's and Kings are still existing today.  I am just glad that I don't live in 16th century where a Pope could have you decapitated, after you were first torched by hanging to half-way dead, disemboweled, burned, or whatever barbaric way they had of torturing those evil protestant Lutherans that wanted change.

Religion has been about power, fear and controlling the masses.  Just more subtle today, with consciously scaring of hell and eternal damnation for the soul.  Since they can't quarter you anymore for being a non-believer in Jesus

 
How could you possibly know?

 

I guess all U.S. military personal believe in America, because it would be hard to live and breath in that environment.

doesn't mean that many of them would secretly, or not so secretly like to.

Do all pimpathies believe that sex isn't fair the more he thinks about it?   Remember,  penises existed before there were balls. Roflmao

I believe Jesus existed and was tortured for going against religious leaders and laws of his days.  But what the Catholic church did after he died is just as barbaric as the Romans before Christianity conversion.  And has been the biggest hustle ever connived against all the peasants and servants.

And still continues today because there is too much money keeping it together.

... is buying a used car fair?

but I found that although I was perfectly capable of lying, I just couldn't bring myself to tell lies "that fucking big"

I thought to myself, "no one could ever believe anything THAT ridiculous, coming out of my mouth"

I guess I was wrong, people really are that stupid and that gullible, but I still sleep better at night. I don't think I could live with a lie that big.

That's how much game the Pope has.

Even when presented with evidence against it...  Such as "why have you forsaken me",  they continue to make shit up to explain it away.  

He was quoting from psalms to fulfill his prophesy!!!  Yeah that's it. Roflmao

Voltaire is preaching.

They probably believed in GW too.

Instead of the Church, of course man can tame mother nature.

so you don't get stuck being the victim of a used-car lot.

 
... and if you buy a used car on credit, you might have a lo-jack device installed and don't even know it.

 
That's how they can find their property, at repossession time
