It's just, for me, at least, way too bizarre and so based in fantasy, it's just hard to believe that normal, smart people could believe this stuff.

It often amazes me that people honestly believe that we are simply a fluke, that everything we are and have made is simply a mistake when sludge somehow came alive. That normal, smart people could believe something in which no person in history has been able to describe how simple molecules become alive.
Ok, so I believe in evolution. But take the same microscope to yourself before you apply it to others.
Can you mathematically explain why a lightswitch works instantaniously while electrons go only inches per second? I can, but most people only know that when they hit the switch the light turns on. Can you mathematically explain how your computer turns electrisity into pulses and then into the information that allows you to communicate with the rest of us? Or do you just believe that if everything is right that you will be able to do it?
Religion is simply this on a universal level. That there are things we will never understand exactly how it works, but our belief is that there is good out there. And that good out there is stronger than evil, and we will be rewarded for being good.
I dont understand how normal, smart people would want to believe that stuff.
