Oh, and as to the OP.... what a load of BS. I was christened. So What? The next step was confirmation/Communion. Guess what? I chose not to. I don't go to church. End of Story.
If people really feel they need that, they're in a far worse place regarding their beliefs than a ceremony like that could help them with.

Political statements aren't for fun. They're political. You wanna have fun, go buy a hula hoop.

I feel GREAT personal benefit from not givin a shit about god/heaven/afterlife. Instead I care about life itself, not some supernatural psycho-babble. So go take you god-fearing miserable self somewhere else, mmkay? Oh I know, since you think the "after-life" will be so great, take yourself there. Stop polluting my world with your "higher calling." I'm over it.

one reason among many
Because when beliefs are driven by benefits, God tends to start favoring agendas which are peculiarly beneficial to his followers. Uncanny, in fact.
. . . As a reference, I cite all of human history.
