I don't feel sorry for them. The truth isn't hard to find; they simply refuse to acknowledge it for various reasons. I do, however, feel sorry for the children. They aren't able to fully reason yet, and they accept what their parents and elders say without question mostly. I know that they will either make some difficult decisions after their indoctrination or they will continue the shared delusion and allow an organization and dogma to lend hollow meaning to their lives rather than it coming from within.
