People will make up anything in order to feel special and secure.
Christians, they tend to make up their own version of Christianity. Some take the bible literately, some don't. Some say atheists won't go to hell, some others say they will. Some say god didn't create the universe, some say god did. All these conflicting beliefs exist within Christians. So there begs the question...which version of Christianity is correct?
So yes, everyone of a religious faith make up their own kind of religion, their own personal god that happens to agree with them. They can't bring themselves to believe in a god that could send them to hell. That would defeat the whole point of believing in something in order to feel special and secure.
It is a delusion. Just leave'em to believe in whatever they wish. After all, beliefs don't matter. Facts do.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
