Also what do you say when people say they believe because they "feel God", so it is the "right religion"?
1. You can't make yourself believe something you don't really believe. You'll simply wind up trapping yourself in a state of cognitive dissonance.

2.If there is no god you have lived a lie and wasted your devotion on a falsehood and worst still you have possibly led others down that same path.
