Priestcraft

Priestcraft is the practice us using religion, spirituality, and people's existential fears as a means to power. People who claim to speak for God or threaten others with the fires of hell for not believing them are the two most classic examples of Priestcraft. 
Priestcraft's exact parameters may change depending on who you ask about it. The term 'Priestcraft' is normaly attributed to Enlightenment era Deists and so the Temple of Reason has adopted the term as a derogatory one.
