Xeno-x - that is it exactly - it is just so terribly sad that what they
must believe at all costs has failed them so miserably as a life guiding philosophy.

well, they live in and accept something approaching hallucination.
you tell them what you have told.
you show where the scriptures that they depend on are not as reliable as has been accepted -- that the best we can do is 1,000 years after the fact -- that KJV reflects the medieval state of mind instead of translating verbatum --
they will still come back and quote the errant KJV rendering.
some people seem to need to believe what they believe.
and yet this gets in the way of discovering what is valid.
