I never once thought, all kinds of religious faiths are a sign of insanity. In the case of literalists and fundamentals, I'm tempted to make that judgment, but otherwise, no.

Usually it's a sign of people wanting some guidance, wanting to be taken by the hand instead of facing to be all alone in an often hostile environment. And let's face it, there are moments in life, when everyone of us wants to be taken by the hand. It's just a different hand, we, as non believers, are expecting.
