The same way you deprogram someone who looks at life with generalizations...education.
You should try it, might prevent you asking condescending questions like this.

There are some who's minds are so closed, even the most logical arguments don't even make a dent. Unfortunately those people aren't really listening. I don't waste my time trying to argue with them.

I think they are beyond help. If they are not harmless, then they need to be removed from society. Incidentally, I don't just include religion in that group.

If you're determined to "deprogram" us, just make sure you're right first.

It's very difficult. Just keep challenging them and pounding them with hard fact in the hope that they might eventually see the light and be steered away from their creed.
