RE: False equivalency

November 29, 2015 at 6:40 pm (This post was last modified: November 29, 2015 at 6:41 pm by BrianSoddingBoru4.)

I think the primary difference between a confidence trickster and a religious proselytizer is that the conman is always lying, whereas the majority of religionists believe that what they're pushing is true (if they don't believe it to be true, they fall into the category of 'conman'). Thus, religionists aren't always 'lying', per se, but they're guilty of pushing false information, all the same.
