Quote:Should i tell them? or is it better to live a lie, than alone?
Ultimately a very personal question that no one can decide for you. Not all theists are WBC-class nutbags. Most are really just flawed human beings who would rather pretend that there is some fairy godfather looking out for them than face the fact that they are on their own. In a sense not too different from what you are describing, except you are dealing with reality not fantasy.
Consider though: Would you go out of your way to tell a 3 year old that Santa does not exist? You are perfectly capable of maintaining the illusion of Santa for the child while knowing yourself that it is total bullshit. It does not hurt you and it keeps the child quiet. Similarly, if these people are not sacrificing virgins or stoning people who work on Sunday it seems that their delusions are relatively harmless. 'Talk is cheap' as the saying goes and if all that is required of you is that you not tell them that they are out of their fucking minds it seems as if you should be able to handle that considering what you have already survived.
