That's what it really comes down to. Even when being offered free forgiveness, and blessing on top of it, people don't want to admit that they're guilty.
Forgiveness for what? Is there anything that deserves eternal torment?
The Catholic notion of purgatory at least makes some sense, though why salvation would be necessary to it is beyond me.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
