Then they aren't true believers. A true believer is someone who will stick with what they believe in no matter how many reformations of their faith go underway by other people. They believe in what they were taught in the beginning and won't shift gears out of fear or doubt.
Anyway, I don't really care. God or life can't be explained in a way that allows humans to fully understand either concepts. With all the scientific advancements humans have made, God is starting to look questionable and with the mystery of life itself, believing in a god makes it much easier to have those mysteries solved without having to actually solve them, so in the end, the best solution to all of this is to simply live life in the way that pleases you most. I'm not saying religion isn't somehting to explore. I myself have dabbled in a few faiths and it was pretty refreshing. It's fundementalism that's bad. To take religion for word for word. To not look for symbols or to not read between the lines.
