Hello Rawnrr and all.
Reasoning can change direction with less discomfort than changing belief I think.
There may well be deep rooted considerations concerning personal and cultural identity which accompany holding a belief. Where this is the case the prospect of this identity component being removed will naturally be of concern to the person affected.--Possibly to the extent of closing down enquiry and questioning.
I think it probable that anyone, any of us, in a similar predicament might do the same.
Just love the other I think.
