Baaah

I believe this varies. Some may, some may not. 

The the case of Cults or fringes of major religions, the leaders probably realize the bs. Even if they don't know the textbook names for what they are doing.

Most master manipulators didn't have formal training, unless you count indoctrination with religion.

Would there be more atheists if more people could see through the brainwashing?
I reject your reality and substitute my own!
