Is it worth the effort to try and ‘convert’ theists to atheism? Here are some other, related questions.
​
How important is it for one to know the truth?
Some theists derive emotional strength and support from their religion. Is it right to try and ‘convert’ these people?
And finally, what do you believe to be the benefits of being an atheist?
​
(My use of quote marks in the above sentences indicate, because I do not wish to imply that atheism is a religion.)
