In your opinion what causes christians to believe in Jesus

Having faith that flipping a switch will turn on the lights in the room isn't the same as having faith that Jesus is going to descend from the clouds and gather you to his bosom. One is a reasonable expectation based on experience, the other is magical thinking.

Exactly, and of course religious faith produces wildly differing religions, and beliefs in entirely different deities,  the Christian religion alone has over 45k different sects and denominations globally. 

This then shows that religious faith is merely an excuse people use, when they want to hold a subjective religious belief, and know that they cannot support that belief in any remotely objective way.
