Help them with what? They came equipped with all the same hardware you did, it's factory standard..lol. How are you supposed to help someone who has no interest in the user manual? From here, all I can see is pointing out that you don't have the same problems...because you can/have/wish to/are capable of reading same said manual.

I think that logic can deconvert people. Rare or not.

I don't. "You cannot reason people out of a position that they did not reason themselves into."

Why not? They may not believe for logical reasons, but why does that mean that you can't help them value the logic more?

If they were going to value logic over faith....do you imagine that they would come to you as faithful people (along lines that conflict)? Or do you imagine that you personally can overcome their culture, upbringing, human ticks, etc by sheer strength of reason?
'Then whenceforth cometh illogical shit?'

No I don't imagine it. But that doesn't mean that it isn't possible. Like I said "rare or not". I think that it can happen.

Gotta put it out there right, whether or not it sticks. For the same reason I mock the afflicted. Maybe reason works for some, and you have that covered (maybe). Others I think are best motivated by ridicule(maybe)..lol.
