A long read (too long to copy and paste), but you will get the idea.
This reminds me of quotes from Christopher Hitchens on the use of the title "Reverend":
"Jerry Falwell's foul rantings prove you can get away with anything if you have "Reverend" in front of your name."
“It's a curious thing in American life that the most abject nonsense will be excused if the utterer can claim the sanction of religion. A country which forbids an established church by law is prey to any denomination. The best that can be said is that this is pluralism of a kind.”
