I am about to ask a serious but utterly reprehensible question

RE: I am about to ask a serious but utterly reprehensible question
In what way is any of that relevant? If they're converting from other faiths then they're already dyed in the wool, so what's the real difference? Besides which, those are the kind of people who are going to end up making the decision about whether to subject their kids to this (or others' kids, FSM forbid). And if many of them have been subjected to that as children themselves, they can grow up believing it's the way to go about indoctrinating, and may have been a key factor in preventing their emancipation. Those facts don't address the problem here, maybe in some other thread.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
