Those who believe in God or religion are not acting on logic or misinformation. They are acting upon tradition, the emotional need to feel hope or fulfillment, and sometimes their own weakness. There are many brilliant Christians who hold multiple PhDs and are more than capable of critical thinking.
Personally, I believe there is a greater power, but I'm not sure it's the same as what others see. But since science, theism nor deism know the facts, I never look down on anyone else's beliefs.
