They're not actually trying to convince us of anything. They already have faith. They're trying to convince themselves because that niggling suspicion in the back of their mind is always there!
The one that says:
What if I'm wasting my time because there's no god!
What if my god is the wrong god to believe in and not the one true god.
What are the chances of the god I believe in which are predicated entirely on a geopolitical happenstance as to where my parents were born and subsequently which religion was shoved down their throats from good ol' gramps...
What if I'm just a gullible fool and the atheists are right?
Hey theists. I apologize to any genuine non trolling theists here. Please don't respond with anything other than: I have faith, I need no evidence. That's a great answer. But then if that was your attitude, you guys probably wouldn't be here.

Here is why living the Catholic life is the best life possible: Because the life is not just the best way to live for getting to Heaven; it is also the best way to live here on earth. It leads to the best happiest results. Serving others is always the very best way to live. Subjugation of selfish interests, making sacrifices, self-denial is always the best way to live.
