Because without people believing in it it would be harmless dead mythology
I'm not going to bother ridiculing Zues or Greek mythology or whatever
It's the believers that give it power. The faith itself is just fiction. I'm not going ridicule an idea. Ideas don't have feelings. It's the people that can feel it. You don't burn a flag alone. Flags don't have nerve endings. You do it in front of someone stupid enough to care. The flag doesn't care.
