I work for a church and I can't stand it any more.

RE: I work for a church and I can't stand it any more.
How do you know he fakes belief? He may never have been asked about his belief as part of his employment. Or if he was, he may have been honest when he first started. It's a weird kind of standard for a job where your actions don't matter, only what you think. That would be pretty much uniquely anything to do with religion, if that's supposed to be a valid argument.

Also, as a secondary lame defence, people lie all the time to get jobs. Maybe that's not great, but I don't consider this any worse. Not saying he did lie though.

I think you're blowing this way out of proportion. He was doing his job and doing it well as far as we know. A lot of jobs can involve actual lying, anyhow.

What he is doing is not hurting anyone, it's the indoctrination of children that is the harm.
