The point of being a believer of any religion is to disregard, or hate, all other religions as being wrong and evil. Therefore, a really firm believer in any religion doesn't give a damn about understanding the other folks' favorite religious fairy tales.I wasn't just talking about the devout, but moderately religious as well, they just develop this failure to understand the justification for anyone believing in a religion different from theirs.
Just because a group of people might consider themselves to be members of an umbrella religion (Judaism, Christianity, Judaism, etc.) if they are not all members of the same sect they generally regard the others as deviants and almost as evil as non-believers.
If a person is religious at all it's stupid for him to believe in any other religions or to give them any credibility.
