As an example, if a Christian were to learn tomorrow without a shadow of a doubt that God didn't exist, or their entire family died, or the country were to fall apart then suicide while not a guarantee would become a possibility.
So Christians are so brainwashed that a truth that does not fit into their little world would be a cause for self murder.
I have never been a Christian and find this apparent fault in their belief system disturbing.

Sure they can. lots of things can make you lose scepticism.
Wishful thinking is a big one, like saying you don't want to die then someone says life can somehow go on. Wouldn't you cling to that?
Oh and alchohol.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
