Maybe for you, but certainly not for me. It's why I think that faith = bullshit is a true statement.
I have yet to hear from a theist, how faith (the way the word is used for religious beliefs) differs from gullibility.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
