Faith industry

Faith industry
I got invited to watch a film by a nice lady (and I hope there will be more)

but if I don't ask these questions I will not be t. happy. So,

How big is Faith industry actually?
How many employees does it have?

If people would stop believing in God(s), what will its employees do? 
Find employment somewhere else? Starve?

And would the world economy crash, if faith industry would disappear overnight?
I liked the parts where these old yahoodies tolchock each other and then drink their Hebrew vino, and getting onto the bed with their wives' handmaidens.

They could sell snake oil.  Probably the only thing they are qualified to do.

Not sure what exactly you're taking about but it sounds like your need to take plenty of cash.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

The film sucked IMO, but we had great time.

Faith a. Belief in God or in a set of religious doctrines.
b. A set of religious doctrines; a body of dogma: adhered to the Muslim faith.
c. often Faith Christianity Secure belief in God and a trusting acceptance of God's will viewed as a theological virtue.

Industry 2. (Commerce) a branch of commercial enterprise concerned with the output of a specified product or service: the steel industry.

Do churches provide certain service?
Do people pay for it?
Look at this nice house, did Jesus personally send money to His preacher?

RE: Faith industry
While not rigidly adhering to the primary defintions the term does get the point across. This town has several megachurches that employ quite a few people and make a shit load of money for the owners. (Who may or may be the preacherman.)

Poverty goes up - religion goes up.
Poverty goes down - religion goes down.

Arabs have crappy economy and deserts(crappy agriculture) and they have strongest religion. 

Japan has ultra high tech economy and very low religiosity.

By that metric the US deep South should be very religious.
