I believe I did manage to change the opinions of a few people, or in the very least made them re-evaluate their positions. But I think "critical thinking" should be a subject taught at schools. It goes against human nature, but so do a lot of other things.
If you teach critical thinking skills without giving extreme examples (like religion) that could cause cognitive dissonance, more people might adopt the idea. And, in turn, may actually start examining their beliefs independently.
