I asked her if she would commit to be baptized, and she agreed. I was a senior missionary at that time swooping in to seal the deal, so three weeks later the two young lads assigned to her family baptized the whole lot.
It still leaves me with a sour taste in my mouth every time I think back on it.
Gullible people are so cute 
No. They're an issue.

That's not what I'm suggesting, no. Are you, however, suggesting that ignorance can be bliss?

Your words are indicative of suicidal warning signs, for either yourself or someone you personally know. Have you talked to someone about this yet? There's not much we can do for you over the Internet except offer words of advice and compassion.

I'm not talking about me. I talked to people who would not be able to live without religion.

And vice versa. Ironically.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Indeed. Do you think the world is a happier place with these people continuing on this way, or is it just a world with less suicide by theists?

If there would be no religion then people who live and die in shit would know that shit is all there is for them.

My question is why do we stop them the second or third time?
Definitely before they have kids. God or no god is not important.
