Being "hardwired to believe " is not necessarily a gift. Such people are often close minded, not curious, exclusive, bereft of empathy for anyone not likewise "hardwired". Some have unquestioning faith because uncertainty scares them shitless and others just find it easier to accept (i.e. be faithful) than go through the effort and anxiety of questioning one's basic beliefs.

“I had already found that it was not good to be alone, and so made companionship with what there was around me, sometimes with the universe and sometimes with my own insignificant self; but my books were always my friends, let fail all else.”
Joshua Slocum, Sailing Alone around the World

“There are two motives for reading a book; one, that you enjoy it; the other, that you can boast about it.”
