Why not just put a video camera on the booth?  They could hire volunteers from the Atheists' Anonymous meetings to watch all the footate and listen to all the deep inner feelings of strangers on camera.  Easy!  Might even use 'actors' dressed up as priests ...  It would be quite hilarious to see the footage when some dunderhead ever fell for it.  What a classic!
