Lets think about how Christianity started and how it was spread. 12 people that knew Jesus personally went out and spread the world. It was their personal relationship with him that won them over, and eventually much of the world. It really is faith, but once you believe you know. It is people sharing their personal faith in Jesus that has won 2.1 billion hearts. There is no opression like you see in other faiths where people are forced to believe under penalty of death. I like logic, but that isn't what wins over peoples hearts, its supernatural.
 
 

 Well I wasn't won over by supernatural, I was won over by logic and science, as it has provided me with all the amazing things I see around me every day.  I have hope that more and more people will see this to be true in the coming generations and that one day we will finally relegate religion to a historical paradigm.  But you're right, people want to believe, just look at all those morons practicing witchcraft, paganism and christianity everywhere (they're all the same to me :)
