Believe it or not but the biggest atheists are the priests/pundits etc who reside in Temple/Church/Madrasa etc. Its nothing but just hypocrisy and Billions of people are being fooled.

Here are couple of observation from my side.

Long time ago, we went to BABA DHAM, India after completing SLC as I had promised the I would go after completing. Our effort to enter the temple and see the god was derailed and we were beaten by sticks in the morning. Then we figured it out that only way was to bribe them. We all paid Rs 20 and went inside easily same day. Taking bribe in temple, do you really think they believe in God? come on.

I am sure some of you must have heard about how group of 5 or 6 priests raped and killed one innocent girl in Janaki temple in Janakpur, it was 10-15 years ago and it probably happens every month or week, if not everyday in one of the temples around the world.

I know a great priest here (in California). There are 6-7 others under him. His only motive is to capture the property of that trust which has over 10M of land and buildings. He has secretly married at least 3 times and he did it just to bring someone here from overseas and he charges only about 15K for that, not bad huh... and now he has a kept as well. I asked him once how he was able to fool the USCIS as he is a priest but he gave a cunning smile and told me that he is not a Priest in the petition he files, he is a Theology Professor...dam it.
I had couple of drinks with him and one time when he was really high, he told me about which girl is better (hotter) than which..and BTW, he perches twice a week on how to devote and concentrate your mind to god and being abstain is good for mankind.

How much respect you have now for this kind of priest?

You will find similar example everywhere so if this is not hypocrisy, what it is?
