OP:
The truly brainwashed will refuse to believe no matter what the evidence (or lack there of) and continue on.
Quite a few will have ChadW's reaction and continue in their belief without the afterlife.
Others will reject the belief and move on to the next fantasy that will give them direction. Maybe the bait/reward will be money,sex, power, ......... vs ever lasting life.
I'm sure there would be other categories.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
