    The vast majority of religious workers are akin to workers at a scam call centre. Selling you “thoughts and prayers” and guilt tripping you to give them money. Basically fooling you into something non-existent.

    Scammers also give a lot of their time and resource and work full-time. I guess they deserve a living wage too, huh?

    The only thing they need is run a pretend-charity, community service and food drives?

    You sure seem to like your make-belief system where you think they are net-positive to the community. I’m sure a you would feel the same about scam call centres, if only they could upgrade their PR with some charity. All that without all the violent history.

    But oh no, they’re brown people in a third-world shithole… so that’s a pass. I love my own pretend-charity cult with supreme people.

      There is definitely predation on 3rd-world countries by the centralized religions.

      “Join us and we can get you + converted family jobs.We can get you loans. You will get money from us.”

      Then 1 year later … " You need to pay back what we did for you … pay up every week"

      “Did you just try to runaway ? We will now track your every move… pay us or ELSE!”
