No. I understand exactly why they do it. Who wouldn't want to believe in eternity in paradise? It is basically the same reason kids believe in Santa Clause.
Plus religion fills a big hole that most people are afraid to deal with.
They can't deal with death being final.
They can't deal with life not being "fair".
They have a need to feel special and can't deal with the idea that their life is has no deeper meaning.
They love the safety that religion provides.
