So you are saying that no one who ever believed in god could ever have their beliefs changed.
The ultimate example of the "no true scotsmen" argument.

Example, one of your parents subscribes to a way of life you do not believe is right, you can deny that way of life but you can't deny the parent is real. Now don't give me the God can't be seen thing it want work, the person believed with certainty that God exist and that can't change.
People are often wrong about things "they know for a certainty" and when they find that out they change their minds.
Lets take your analogy. Lets say that the person was delusional and imagining the parents existence or misunderstanding their belief system or perhaps it turns out that they weren't his real parents.
There that wasn't so hard now was it.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
