I'm atheist but I'm considering becoming a preacher
I started a "ministry" in high school.
I got creeped out by how fast it grew and how devoted some of the people became. Super easy, too.
Some of them still talk to me to this day.
I just don't like doing people dirty. It felt wrong.
It's the same reason I didn't go the MLM route with my other ventures.
These "schemes" are very tried and tested ways of generating cash flow. I just have this thing where I have a conscience/soul/something that tells me "DON'T."
These preachers clearly don't have that same internal governor.
