I break it down into three major reasons:
#1 - The most important reason is the fear of death. They want to live forever in a paradise with family and friends that they like to be around. Everyone else may be subject to not going to said paradise, or may even be subject to eternal torture, depending on how big of a cunt the person holding the beliefs are.
-Fear of death quinched, and you even get a bonus paradise forever with Grandmaw and Spot!
#2 - Christians need a quick answer for everything they dont understand or know. They dont like to say "I dont know". Saying "God did it" not only makes them feel they have an answer for things, but it also reafirms their belief stated in #1. God did it all. No need to really have to think hard about it. No reason to really go to school and learn about some of these things (im not trying to say no christian goes to college), and even then you can squeeze a god inbetween of what is learned.
-Fear of the unknown quenched, and you even get a bonus quick, easy answer for anything and everything.
#3 - The more fundamental they become, the more anti-social they become. Not all Christians fall into the #3 category, but all fundies DEFINITELY do. They dont like things that are different, strange, new, or out of the norm. The devil obviously has some sort of play in this situation on these people because if they knew better they would be living and acting the way the fundy lives and acts. If the fundy doesnt like something, their is usually a suggestion that it become illegal to do so, along with draconian if not mortal fines to be paid for daring to be different. Reverse psychology and child psychology is typically played upon those who are different, such as a gay man who openly admits he is gay in the presence of a society that condemns it. The gay mans brave act will instead be restamped as a "cowardly and depraved" act, and if he "only had the courage", he would join the social norm.
-Fear of differences quenched, you even get a bonus "God hates and loves what I hate and love" excuse to ease any burdon on your conscious. You arent being a dick, you are being a messenger. God said it, and God is all good. 'nuff said.
