Some information of trivial interest?
The world of Christianity is wracked with unbelievers who may be 'acting' as believers to make a buck or two or to have power over others. When a person who claims to be a person of God and convinces others to follow him/her, they tend to be able to extract anything from the followers they want simply by catering to the followers devotion to God, and making them think they are doing what God wants.
