I watched this yesterday ... is there anything we can do when those we love are delusional? Does believing small delusions today (for a little comfort) set us up to be scammed later in life(lose comfort and freedom)? Does willfully believing lies lead to decreased ability to distinguish lies from reality later? Is it really worth it?
And, if I assure my old neighbor that they will see their past wife again one day, cause the Bible says so, and then that neighbor uses my assurance as of the the "people in that room that agree with me" ... to make it a stonable offense to pick up sticks on Saturday ... am I easing the suffering of one man, to cause the suffering of many other?
