To be fair. Most people don't choose religion. Most religious people were abused as children and are kept hostage by the cult. Leaving would mean stigma from their cult family members and in some captured countries, society as a whole. Religion is something forced upon you through abuse.

I was an Ortodox Cristian. I live with fundamentalist Ortodox Cristians, and I am at fault for how radical they are, because I believed it 100%. But I'm not one anymore, too many things made it fucking obvious that you have to be delusional to believe it. Eventually, if you are reasonable at all, you will realize.

EDIT: To be ironically one of the voices of reason, yes, most people can't just break out, I understand.

They need to be deprogrammed.
