Conversion to Realism is an Evolutionary Process |
Rarely is a person likely to instantly convert from a strongly theistic religion to Realism. Perhaps if they just had a traumatic experience where they were really burned by a religion and just realized that what they thought was real was fiction, then they might be ready to instantly embrace reality. But if people are comfortable in their beliefs and they are socially integrated into their religious culture, then there's no strong motivation to accept reality. Some people will even admit that. They will tell you that it doesn't matter if it's real or not as long as it makes them happy.
What we have to offer is reality the way it really is. It may not seem as robust as the world of fantasy but it is real, and I think that if reality is fully explored that it is as robust if not more so that the world of fiction. Certainly it is more robust than the fictions that most religions are offering today.
