I think that it is bothersome to think about certain things as being predetermined by our biological boxes. Most people like to think and believe things that don't have any foundation in "truth", such as love and religion. This doesn't stop people from believing in it completely and whole-heartedly. It's much easier than believing that you believe (or don't) in God because a few neurons fired off in the right way. Or that you love significant other for the same reason. I think it's easier as well as more concrete to just believe. If most people were aware that there was little to no physical foundation for these things that it would still be the same for them. After all it's a soul thing not a brain thing in most opinions.
