This thing you people do whenever Christians are having a conference is really not cool.
You do it during Redemption camp, Hallelujah Challenge, NSPPD and so on. Some things are not supposed to make sense to you. You go to concerts, clubs, and bars nobody criticize or bother you, you go because it makes sense to you - Freewill.
People are going through different things and oftentimes, hope is what keeps them going. When there is hope, there is something to live for. There is a belief that no matter how bad things are today, everything will be okay. And prayer is comforting to most people.
If you donโt like the practices, ignore and move on. Allow people to be delusional if that will make them happy and sane. Allow people to believe in their whichever way they choose to.
Allow people to practice their religion without being shamed for it.
Why are you so obsessed with Christians and their practices since you donโt believe in the religion? Why are you always at the forefront of criticism every year? This is not a good way to live life. Let people be.
I will not lie, I love the boldness of expressions of our generation and the common sense people bring to the subject of faith and devotion.
If anything, I hope everything you listed here makes you to agree with the position of the gospel, that we will not be condemned before God because we are so bad, neither are going to be accepted because we are so good, but that the entire basis of our redemption will be if we acknowledge and receive the sacrifice of Jesus as a substitute for us or not.
You should know by now that the Bible was not curated to depicts the life of good, sensible and perfect people; there was no hiding of bad stories for spiritual correctness. The good, the bad and the ugly were clearly represented as they happened.
More importantly however, the end goal is to show how everything is about God and our salvation. The bad who trust in God are saved, the good who trust in themselves are damned, the bad and the good who trust in God are saved, the good and the bad who trust in themselves are damned!
