In your opinion what causes christians to believe in Jesus

[Sheldon]

It's difficult for contemporary christians to walk in faith.  Their witchdoctors and shamans preach on it every weekend but it doesn't seem to matter.  That's why we end up with all of this claptrap.  The faithful have been indocrinated into our shared culture, and they want to tell us that they have answers, that they know of a rational path between here and truth of christs promise.  It's a lie, and, at least thematically speaking, part of life's test, as they tell it.

I wouldn't dare argue against your analysis. You have a decade of experience in these forums after all, and an interest in religion and anthropology.

So disparaging an argument, not by addressing it in any cogent way, but by attacking the person making the argument, or an ad hominem fallacy.
