I agree with what fr0d0 is saying to some degree. A newborn baby of Christian parents is not a "Christian", it is a de-facto atheist. However given that most (if not all) children take on the religion of their parents, one could say that someone born into a Christian family is "born into" Christianity. It is a personal choice to believe, but that choice may have been forced / persuaded by the family environment the child grew up in.
