The truth is stronger than Jesus so just let the truth reveal itself.

'For I am the way, the truth and the light' - Buddy What's His Name and De Other Feller

Mo?
Curly?

@Willow_Wisp It's more of a Newfie thing but that's not something that most people understand if they aren't Canadian. My people sailed over from England in 1753 to Labrador which is the mainland across from Newfoundland, so it's a roots sort of thing.

The trick is getting people to think. It is far easier to follow a sky faerie and conform than to think it through, asking questions and deciding on evidence.
Of course, faerie followers argue that facts have no place in faith and that is a strong drive in human psychology to ignore science.
I find the statements implying 'gods will or plan' insulting to my intelligence. Why was it some bloody faeries goal that my maternal grandfather had to kill two very young German lads in Sicily for King and Country in 1943? If they were to grow up 'evil', then this all powerful faerie shouldn't have made them that way! Fact is, circumstances of society put them into a war that caused them to meet in conflict leading to two of them to an untimely death.
In that war, he learnt the truth that there are and never were any deities, after all they had God with us (Gott mit uns) on their belt buckles and he had 'Made in Birmingham WD' on his!

Absolutely ANYTHING is stronger than the mythological Jeebus Chrust since Jeebus Chrust never actually existed.

When I was in Catholic school in the 70s religion was taught as if it were a fact and real.

Hell yea! I had two realities. School teaching me science with grades at stake and home where the earth is only six thousand years old and all the species of animals came two by two out of a fucking wooden boat on top of a mountain. You don't bring up your family beliefs because you don't want to embarrass yourself again at school but you have to look for ways that both are true, but you can't bring up actual science that doesn't agree with their religious dogma and you're subject to complications due to their aggressions. As a small child I was frequently beat for minor infractions so that showdown can't happen before I move out. As I grew older I earned privaledge by playing along with my family's religion. I coped by keeping both worlds as far apart as humanly possible.

I could have just said me too I suppose.

Religious just take it on faith that jesus is real.

The delusional are happy in their delusions…they don’t HAVE to solve their own problems or take responsibility…they can say, “god willing”.

To many weak minds out there can't grasp such a powerful statement.

The truth is highly unlikely to reveal itself when burried under a mountain of beliefs. Beliefs which have formed the core identities of many people through repetitive thoughts and rituals.

It's taking entirely too long.

Yes but perhaps as an old saying goes, All good things take far longer to happen than do the bad things.

@Triphid This shit has been going on over 2000 years. How fucking long is it supposed to take?
