I'm not blaming them on religious teachings. The people who said they come from religious teachings did.

Wherever they come from, they become ingrained in ideologies and practices. It can take a degree of rule breaking to overcome these practices. Holding a press conference doesn't always work.

This kind of stuff demonstrates particularly kind of irony. One usually can't aspire to pull off "holier than thou" better than traditional religious leaders, and yet, people criticizing traditional religious leaders in this fashion are REALLY trying.
