Does anybody else feel sorry for religious people?

My wife, for instance, has said on more than one occasion that she is aware that her beliefs are probably not rational, but she doesn't really care to find out.

I mean, if that works for them and they're not shoving it in my face, I guess I can accept that, but I don't think it's always as simple as their brainwashed. They just don't really want to know if their beliefs are valid or not because of they comfort they receive.

True enough, and I should not have made such a generalization. Some do indeed choose their irrationality.
