In your opinion what causes christians to believe in Jesus

[Alan V]

"God is love" isn't that hard to understand emotionally, even if it makes no real sense rationally.

Is that what you guys are calling propaganda? There has to be room here for people to hold beliefs that are different than yours without perceiving it as manipulation or coercion.

I respect people who understand that their faith is just faith, since each person learns at their own rate.

I am much less convinced that religious leaders who make all sorts of positive and unlikely assertions are really being honest with themselves and others.
