She wasn't a pastor, but Mother Teresa taught things she didn't believe to be true.
I tend to think that an awful lot of people don't actually believe what they say/pretend to believe when it comes to religion. Even "mainstream" Christianity says some pretty wacky things. They just go along for the ride because that's what they are expected to do and it's easy to just go with the flow.
The odd time I went to church as a kid I thought the whole thing was a put on. The adults didn't actually believe what we were talking about.
