The big difference to my mind is that religious leaders tend to proclaim their adherence to the tenets of goodness and justice and righteousness. In reality, they practice immorality, injustice and bigotry.
That goes for an awful lot of leaders of other kinds!
I have not respect for most leaders, but the few are those who, instead of trying to tell us what is good for us, try to do what the electorate tell them they need.
