I think in religions, the followers rarely ask why, they just flow with it and are perfectly happy like that.

Maybe ask those people WHY they think they believe what they say they believe.

The most common replies that I've heard:

-- it's in the bible so I believe it
-- It's what my family believes
-- I believe because I have faith ((?)
-- I believe it because it just feels right in my heart
-- I'd rather be safe than sorry

I have heard some very compelling arguments as well, but most just go to the bible to explain why.
I cannot tell you how flawed I think that reasoning is.

Thanks for this forum....JMO (just my opinion)
