An interesting video how many of Christian pastors, priests and other "religious professionals" are going atheist in USA. They talk about initial depression because I guess it is a mental shock when you lose faith or that worldview. They also show what these people do afterward and some even continue to run their Christian church as preachers although they told their congregation they don't believe in Jesus anymore. But it's not just Christians there are also Rabbis.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
