Why does my boss say he is.....?

a preacher. And then use that to justify his actions. Like I'm a preacher and I think it's ok so it is. Or I'm a preacher and my god pays his bills so they should pay them right when they are due no excuses. But his church went bankrupt , so technically he isn't a preacher because he is not preaching anywhere. And he says stuff like we will get this resturant to be our caterers, but instead of charging the customer (we are a hotel) the actual price we will bump it up 15%-25% so we can make a profit for doing nothing. I understand many companies may do these things, I just don't feel it's right to say one thing and do another. So my question is why? Why does he say these things if they seem wrong or dishonest. Why does he not see a situation and help rather want to make money? Just very confused.

Update:

Don't Panic

And please no grammer, punctuation, spelling police. It's the internet not a final paper.

    It's called convenient christianity.

    He's a total doucher and uses his "status" (current preacher or not) as an excuse to do stupid things.

    Simple... because he has the right to make a living. He also needs to make money so that he can pay your salary. It only becomes wrong when he is charging an unfair price to his patron... ie. Cheeseburger for $20, Fries for $12, etc...

    Because people know when they're being dishonest, whether they're doing it intentionally or not, and they always try to rationalize it to themselves, lie to other people about it, etc so that they don't feel like they're being dishonest.
