They're only trying to convince themselves. They stop as soon as they satisfy all their own personal doubts. Which means that they stop questioning their own religion when they reach their own personal level of ignorance.
I was walking into town on Saturday and there was a preacher with a megaphone asking what came first, the chicken or the egg, what brought together all the elements etc. All the usual arguments from ignorance.
An excellent example was when I argued with my zealous brother at Christmas. We asked him why he didn't worship Zeus or Thor. He replied that he doesn't know anything about them. As if that was an adequate answer. His ignorance doesn't change the nature of reality, but it did allow him to believe in one fairy tale rather than another.
