True that, at least the Tooth Fairy gives you something in return for your belief and sacrifical offerings. When was the last time god ever did anything for anyone?
Oh and you're right on Catherine Booth using her religous convictions in her life. Her convictions told her to set up an organisation using minimal charity work to proselytise a deeply homophobic, migoynist, racist and anti-catholic brand of christianity, so she did.
Oh and the fallacy that one's greatness is dependant on their religiosity was definitively put to bed by Msgr. Georges Lemâitre when putting down his pope's insistence that the big bang proved god. I don't have the exact quote to hand but Lemâitre definitively stated that his physics work had no relation to nor any influence from his religious beliefs. No scientist has formulated theory because their religious beliefs gave them inspiration. And, having done actual charity work with a group of nuns, I can be confident that the same is true in the sphere of philantrophy as well.
