Sorry if my initial reply was fuzzy. I don't think I read your original post carefully.
But I agree with what others have said here: it's probably time for you to just love the man in his current state. Love is what changes people, and the more they sense your disapproval for their stuckness, the more likely they will be to harden there.
So, just love him. Let him know that he doesn't need to be anyone else. After all, behind that stuck mind is your father as he really is: another flame of the Source fire, and that fire is eternal and patient and will eventually bring him to the necessary awareness. Sometimes we need to take the bigger view, much bigger. This isn't about getting everything right in the span of one lifetime. We've got eternity to explore.
In the words of Bob Marley:
"Don't worry about a thing. Every little thing gonna be all right!"
