I would say no....especially in the Catholics case. Sure, the Church is rich in today's world by doing unGodly things in centuries past, but they take a vow of poverty and abstinence. Why would anyone do this and support a religion they thought was a charade? They wouldn't (and yes some don't follow their vows of chastity and poverty, but those are the rare exceptions, not the rule).
I think most leaders truly believe what they are espousing....again given the fact that a few are abusive in their power....

I think it is not only possible but very likely.
They know that they are bilking followers out of millions of dollars and yet they don't fear any punishment.
Hmmmmm??

Possibly. Who is in charge of Pastafarianism?

If you could focus your supposition a little, I may could agree with you.
