While agree that believing in gods is irrational it depends on how you define rational - For someone less educated, without scientific knowledge or perhaps in a deeply depressive life episode it may make sense to believe in god or some higher power. We don't really pick to believe or not, I would never be able to believe as much as I tried because I simply don't, and my brain doesn't want to.
