You would most likely need to walk in hand in hand with God and get Him to tell them He did it differently. First they would not believe you walked in with God and then your troubles really start.

For the most part they are really nice people who just don't want to change their ideas, much like scientists are really nice people who just don't want to change their ideas.

It is not like you can't be friends, it is just that you shouldn't be allowed to play together unsupervised ...
