Hmm. It is kinda funny how most people say this... And yet if you look at the parts around the globe... People tend to belong to the religion their parents belonged to.
You would think that if there was one way that people would converge...
And you would think that if it was a *rational* matter that people wouldn't tend to follow that which was most popular in their region.
That is one study that is cited to cast doubt on that typical claim at any rate...
Sometimes people don't have access to their motivations.
Familiar things tend to be preferred to unfamiliar things etc.
