My family has and probably will continue to believe because it's been ingrained for generations now. The answer for them is simple, the majority will always be theists in my book for that very reason. It's become some morbid knee jerk reaction with them. They can't control what they believe anymore. I'm not particularly bright, but I cringe when I'm around them for brief visits home. Everyone seems "conditioned" somehow. My wife and I remain in the closet for fear of exorcism. Her family is as conditioned by it as mine.
Hang in there! It gets better.
