HOW do I know this?
I'm a seminary graduate, former preacher, deeply studied Greek and Hebrew, former church planter, former missionary.
Religion is a scam.
At least 30% of the seminary graduates I know realize it but they're too deeply involved in the grift that they can't say anything for fear of losing their income and, never having developed any skills needed in the real world, would only qualify to be greeters at Walmart. Thankfully, I have an MBA and it's paid off. Most employers today only look back at your employment history 10-15 years and my time "in the ministry" is over 25-30 years ago.
Look up The Clergy Project and realize what I'm saying is fact.
People who understand it realize everything happened without your god. So, yes, you keep using the personal credulity fallacy. You just can't see it ... which is part of your lack of credulity.
You've promoted lies because you've been lied to, conditioned, and brainwashed. You can't see it because you've been lied to, conditioned, and brainwashed. I've been on both sides. I see the lies, conditioning, and brainwashing now ... and it's hilarious.
