The first sentences be true, then it drives off a whacky tangent, or what science calls “a cliff”.
Never take away a person’s beliefs about life. Whether you think they’re true or not has nothing to do with it. They’re their’s, they mean a lot, and that’s how they endure life. To take them away is to be no better than a missionary or JW dooknocker or Ackchyually Guy. If we all respected that rule from all sides, we’d have a lot less unnecessary hatred and death. The theistic, non theistic, and atheistic schools of thought all respect the values of not bringing harm to yourself and then secondly to not bring harm to others. We all share this before barreling down contradicting “ammendments” that no longer reflect the shared principles of humanity.

The first sentence isn’t true at all, science doesn’t try and disprove god at all. It’s just inconvenient for people who used to explain things as ‘god made it’ that science didn’t manage to prove that.
Science is the only belief system that tries to falsify theorems. So rather than daarin something is true, we try to prove something is false. That doesn’t gel with a system that supposes to have the absolute answer to all things.
However it doesn’t say you can’t believe what you want, just that it might not be true.
If religion wasn’t behind some of the worst atrocities on the planet you might have a point, but the largest religions also are the ones that tend to be fundementally intolerant.
Once an irrational belief in magical spirits starts effecting other people and how our society is run that’s when it becomes something people actively need to be convinced not to believe. They need to cope with reality, not hide from it.

You’re addressing wrong people with that
