On the other hand you look at how successful Christian missionaries managed to convert people in Africa. Yes you are right believe the story told by the white male about the old white male with a beard living in the sky that promises you'll live in heaven and eternity if only you follow exactly what this book written by the most racist institution on the planet ever, I don't even think there is any rational explanation how one squares being a third world Christian with colonialism and slavery and yet.
It is sad and unfortunate but also very obvious why it works, material conditions, indoctrination, history etc.
