They are proven false. People leave religions all the time. Often
for another one.
If they were proven false, what's your explanation of why the
catholic church still exists and has followers ? (or take your pick
at any current religion here on earth)
Cannabis danger have been debinked at the start, and since then, its
medical applications have been verified hundred thousand of times (I
can give the references), and yet most people and the states continue
the same "religion" with the dogma that cannabis is a dangerous drug.
The explanation is that professional liars are good at their job, and
for some reason, this is easier on the fundamental matter, than on
technical matter. But it is the same human weakness---to find comfort
in local lies.

It isn't... QI is not worshipped, it is not a belief per se (you can
entertain the idea for an argument or a theory that's all) and QI
could in principle be proven false... A religion by being based on
faith cannot.

Who can tell me that quantum immortality is not religion.
BTW it is not dogma that I believe in.

Some religions may be, that doesn't mean they all are, however.
How do you relate science to beliefs about the world and reality?
Would you say science the collection of those beliefs, or the method
for developing the beliefs?
Science is a way to discover the world, nothing is certain, what you
believe now may be shown wrong tomorrow... that's not the case with
religion...
