This is the problem I struggle with myself. I know that religion is hogwash and that every justification about any sort of logic is made up out of thin air, rather than accepting the truth, or seeing that the simplest answer is usually the correct one.
My question is, if people have surrounded themselves in this kind of nonsense, did they do so for a reason? I wonder if making them face reality is a good or bad thing. To those who cannot accept death, does this make their life more bleak every time you point out some fundamental flaw in their beliefs?
I would like to think that many people were raised in these sort of lies, and they are just perpetuating the old way of thinking of things without realizing that they are doing so. I hope that someone, some day, will take a step back and say, "Wow that really does not make sense." This is what happened to me. In my mind, correcting this one person could potentially have lasting effects, and is worth the effort.
