Religion is a such a hard thing for people to let go. It is so severely ingrained into their minds that they can't even accept it from the source. I so badly want to find a way to help those who are following things that are so obviously wrong when looking from the outside in.

Ingrained Religion, Severe Cognitive Bias
This is a video of Warren Jeffs, the RLDS prophet, speaking to one of his church members, Nephi, trying to explain to him that he wasn't really a prophet and it was all a sham. Even hearing this confession from the prophet himself he still states that the prophet is only being tested by the lord and doesn't accept it. Mr. Jeffs sees that Nephi isn't getting his message so he reverts into "revelation" mode and states it in a way that it is God speaking through Warren saying that Warren is not, and never was a prophet.
