What do believers say when you ask or tell them..

RE: What do believers say when you ask or tell them..
"Call it societal evolution that leads many of us to disbelief, but I am a firm believer that without the religious foundation, many minds would crumble."



Completely agree, it seems like some people have a need to believe in something.
Say if someone is raised within a certain religion, they grow up and know nothing else than that. Then some guy comes and tries to disprove what he has heard since he was born, smashing what he thought was the perfect answer to everything. Obviously he's not going to put his guard down and say "you're right".. I don't really know what point I was trying to make with this.

I think that there will always be some type of religion maybe not the same as it is today but in some other form, simply because people need it.
