Have you ever had your behaviour towards other people influenced by the words of a politician or priest?

Politician no, but minister of religion, yes - positively. Many times. Not because someone 'told me what to do', (which they didn't), but because they gave me quite deep insights. It was people who actually lived what they talked about. To put all religious (or other type of) people into a single box reveals a complete [i]lack [/i]of insight.

of course... the first eggregor is strong for its antiquity and globality, and the second for its compulsive repetition. it is possible to get rid of both.

Both I consider to be complete morons and their professions to be equally useless. Sooooo. No, because I do not sumearch for the opinions of such people

Not that I know of. But if they were really good, I wouldn't recognize it, would I?

No. I'm not religious or believe a word politicians say. 😇

No. I don't trust Priests and Politicians are sketchy.
