Converting

And their believers are so willing, in some cases, to do whatever is necessary to prove their religion to be true. Why would they do that if the beliefs aren't true?

In Islam, if you fight for God and make others believe in his cause; you gain a high rank.

And we KNOW the above is all accurate because who, with God watching over them, would lie to promote their beliefs? That would be a sin and potentially worthy of a hot trip southwards...

Many lie, because sometimes it turns into a complex; a psychological sickness about the person wanting others to obey what they say.

And then we get to the difficulty of choosing which sub group of the religion to belong to. Should we become Shia or Sunni? Catholic or Baptist?

Hear what the God of every religion has to say and decide. And listen to the source -like the Quran- not side books -like the Hadith-.

I prefer the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

It's a better read - doesn't make promises it can't keep - never started a war and has a paranoid android.

You can't do better than that.

These are two separate topics: religion is a belief and a faith, while the HG2G is just for fun.
I watch comedy movies, but it didn't cross my mind once to make them my "faith in life".

How dare you be so arrogant?

You think one work of fiction is more real than another?

I hate to break it to you bucky - it's ALL just a bunch of made up shit.

You have zero evidence otherwise.

You're comparing comedy novels to religion. The comparison fail by a big degree.

Why? They’re both hysterically funny, both created by fallible human beings, and they both engender a lot of controversy.

The chief difference seems to be that it’s ok to laugh at the one but not the other. Oh, no one has ever been murdered (as far as I know) for not liking a particular comedy novel.

How? Believing a story somebody made up is the same - regardless if the author didn't originally set out to trick people into believing it is real.

Don't think so?

See Scientology.

Your particular work of fiction is no different.

Here we have it, the utmost proof of an ass kisser and most grievous an imaginary ass that is.

Laughing on what you don't understand is quite common. For example, ancient scholars -who spoke the truth- were mocked in many occasions.

While comedy is made exactly for the purpose of laughing, religion isn't and billions say that it isn't.

While you use the term "trick"; I disagree with you in the case of Islam.

I am not going to trash the OP's topic by replying to your foul language.
Though; go easy on yourself.

Comic writing has purposes beyond making people laugh. It frequently uses humour as a vehicle to examine vital social issues or ultimate existential conundra. 

You’ve clearly never been exposed to the classic novel ‘The Snarkout Boys And The Avocado Of Death’ or its equally brilliant companion volume ‘The Snarkout Boys And The Baconburg Horror’. In the two books alone, you will find more meaning, more insight into the human condition than in all the holy books and religious commentary every written.

Of course you don't believe that you were tricked into believing your religion.

That's because you WANTED to be tricked into it - so you can conform to the societal norms it espouses.

If you take a good long look at why you believe it - you will come to the conclusion that you have no real reasons for believing it.

You just want to belong.

That's not a reason. It's an excuse.
