Don't take it personally, I understand completely what you are and were getting at. And I agree regardless of how blind others are to whats been in front of thier own noses for years, and how they vehemently deny what you are saying.

Look at it this way:

The first reply to you from that other poster...is sort of an example of what you are saying, that being theres just no reasoning with "the believers", any more than you can reason with people that truly believe that taking a photo of them will take their soul.

Sometimes a toy is just a toy, and a shirt is just a shirt, but you'll never see one of "the believers" buying into that.

Some people are simply above having their beliefs challenged, or more commonly, are deathly afraid of it.

Others wont tolerate such things, because it interferes with, and contradicts their agenda. Some agendas are too invested in for there to be any room for truth.

And some "believers" spend their entire existance looking for things to support their belief. And if they can't find any, or can't find much, well, thats where the spit and bailing wire come in. The people responsible for drug war and its continuation, are one such example.
