    still think

    This is where you went wrong - they don’t “think” that, as in they sat down and logically reasoned it out, they “know” that, as in they were told it from a pastor behind a pulpit, who they pay part of their salary to. If they thought it then they could be convinced by the presentation of facts to now think differently, but since their belief comes from authority, there is really no way around that kind of brainwashing. That I know of at least, in anything like a mere few years.

    I honestly don’t know if our democracy will survive this challenge. What country has ever survived after devolving into a mere two party system, such that neither side does anything except try to block the other one? (That’s a legit question btw, if anyone knows the answer)
