Why do Christians become Christians?

[Mudhammam]

Of course people are primarily religious because it's an emotional crutch rather than due to an interest in the truth or even as a concern for intellectual pursuits. And they fail to recognize that questions of morality and meaning are better approached through philosophy instead of the priesthood, which tends to focus on the few instances when "divines" said something awe-inspiring and true rather than the overwhelming examples of division, egotism, theological hatreds, and falsehoods, which tend to be indistinguishable from the utterly delusional.
