Why does Oedipus not believe Teiresias in 'Oedipus Rex'?
That Teiresias accuses him of being the killer is the reason why Oedipus does not believe Teiresias in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus asks Teiresias for help in solving the mysterious murder of King Laius. Teiresias the blind prophet astounds Oedipus by identifying him as the very killer that all Thebes seeks. Oedipus does not remember meeting the man that Teiresias accuses him of killing.

Whom does Oedipus believe his mother to be in 'Oedipus Rex'?
It is Merope that Oedipus believes to be his mother in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus does not remember anything about growing up other than the years spent in Corinth. But he hears a rumor that he is not the biological son of his presumed parents, the monarchs of Corinth. He is upset by that rumor, but seems to continue to believe that Corinthian Queen Merope is his mother.
What religions don't believe in suffering?
Christian Science teaches suffering is an illusion.
Do the audience believe that Oedipus is Creon's son?
No, the audience doesn't believe that Theban King Oedipus is the son of Theban King Creon. Oedipus clearly is in control of the interaction. Creon comes back from Apollo's Shrine and wants to share what he learns in private with Oedipus and only later in public with the Theban people. Oedipus refuses and tells Creon to speak there and then. That isn't the typical father and son interaction in which the son respects the father, in ancient Greece.
