My question to Gabbix2, Jai, Dinah and other former members of organized religions is why is it that once a Catholic, Mormon (etc) gets fed up and figures out the church is false, they discount all possiblity of there being a true religion somewhere else on the earth? I can see why they are put out by religion in general. But why? Also, it seems like some go out of their way then to try to prove other religions are false. Doesn't make sense to me. Can you please explain?

In your opinion is it:
1. Because in your opinion they are all wrong?
2. Because you don't want to know any different?
3. Because you don't believe there is one true church?
4. Even if there was one true church you wouldn't care?
5. All of the above.
6. None of the above.
