9. It takes tons of energy to keep these faiths from looking like....

..... the bunch of bunk they are. All that work for years and years to keep the reality of it at bay. No wonder it's hard to give it up.... you must put so much into it. My atheism seems effortless.

And I love the appeal to theology.

Theology is what intelligent people came up with to make their struggle with keeping the fact that it's bunk away look scholarly. To me it's like learning Klingon.... when you coulda learned, y'know, French or something. Theology is arguing whether Santa Claus comes down the chimney head first or feet first.
