When you study enough, you'll realise that a intellectual skeptic would never convert to Christianity and especially not literalism.
I'd have to agree that literalism is a very, very unlikely outcome no matter that your i.s. has been put through. I think that Christianity or some other faith is not so impossible. As noted by many here it is an issue of faith and emotion not of reason.

I'm not sure I'm pleased that you've come over to the dark side Mike. It isn't for me but I do know that many get a lot out of their faith. I don't like to see it lost though, of course, many are fine with losing it. I hope you are.
This is the danger of literalism. If one's whole religious faith is tied up in opposition to obvious facts then it becomes vulnerable. This is a reason why many Christians are opposed to the fundies.
