If not, give up trying to convert people, and begin trying to understand them.Sure, our religions die out when people either finally wake up and realise it's a steaming pile of fallacious made-up bullshit, or, more likely, when the human race goes extinct.
Why would you think people who realise it's a steaming pile of fallacious made-up bullshit would not have reason to pass the steaming pile of fallacious made-up bullshit as truth to people who don't realize it's a steaming pile of fallacious made-up bullshit? It's not always in the interest of those who know to put all other prople closer to equal footing. Maximum private good is not the same as maximum public good.
