My advice is if Eddi can concentrate to read, to pick up one book on Critical Thinking and one book on Philosophy, and put religion aside and see if the books are good for him. You may be saying "You can't have just said that, AT-AT. He'll dishonor his religion and your advice is crazy." Well, I think if we have a truly benevolent God in the universe, he will give you the time to straighten yourself out before you try to follow him, to verify your ideas and your ideas of him.
What if you tell Butterfly man "You aren't real. Leave me alone unless you can provide empirical evidence and let me verify it?"
