It's my suspicion that most of our behaviour is the result of habit, with little if any significant thought. I've long suspected that free will is largely an illusion, but I have no idea to what degree.
It's my observation that people generally tend never to seriously questions their religious beliefs and world view they absorbed uncritically before the age of reason. As Greg House said "if you could reason with religious people there wouldn't be any" .
