Never be afraid to ask, but don't demand an answer 
I agree with that, but you wrote:

In fact, it'll be even worse trying to convince religious people.

That suggests that all religious people are stubborn and all non-religious people are open to reason. I don't believe that is the case. I know very reasonable religious people and I have no reason to urge them to stop believing in a God, even if I don't.

On the other hand, I also know some extremely stubborn atheists. By no means do I intend to suggest that atheists are more stubborn than religious people on average. I'm just saying that religiousness isn't a very good way to guess if people can be convinced.
