Better question is, how many may realize it is fake, but fear the
consequence to all the people they are *helping* by admitting that it is
fake? Was an article in a paper recently with this and religion, where
they found and interviewed like five priests who a) don't being in
***any*** of the Bible, including god, but did believe that the
consequence of admitting they don't believe in it, to those that do, or
need the church, was too high for them to admit they don't to their own
parishioners.
But, unfortunately, its also true that one of the things people are good
at is taking a lie, telling it often enough, and getting enough
"apparent" positive results from doing so, that they provisionally, then
finally completely fall for it themselves.
