I have known many Christians, some are members of my family whom I love and respect. However, I just cannot understand why any thinking person would logically grab onto one of the religions. I think it is more emotional than logical since we humans seem to have a deep need to understand our place in the universe and do not want to believe that we just live and die and that's all there is.
I guess I'm agnostic and cling to the idea that there may be some truth in all or most of the world's religions, or not. I haven't met any fanatical atheists yet but have met several fanatical religious ones. IMHO fanatical people seem to push their beliefs on others because deep down they question the basis of their thinking and are trying to reinforce themslves as much as to gain new converts.
