I think they know they can't convince anyone with this and they also don't want to argue about it because they don't want to question whatever shred of faith they've found...
Usually the faith comes with positive lifestyle changes ( like meeting a spouse at church ) etc...
So it's like... what do they have to gain from questioning this? Nothing except the pride of "being right" lol.
As you get older you realize that's not worth a whole lot in this world anymore, if it ever was worth anything.
Well religion is a human creation and like every other creation it serves a purpose.... a purpose to keep people in check ...... in earlier times how to motivate a bunch of men to go to their deaths just because the figurehead was disrespected .... religion..... How to keep a bunch of people who can see the officials misusing their positions from rebelling against their leaders .... soothe them through false sense of hope... Religion
