Hitchins was a hero of mine, the way he cut through the verbosity and dishonesty of religious apologists was of course entertaining, but it was just so refreshing as well. Hitchins spoke like the boy in The Emperor's New Clothes, he pointed out what most atheists (and I suspect a lot of theists) had been thinking. Damn, I miss him!
I don't think people come to believe in a personal god (I guess that is what we are talking about in the main correct?) because they've heard the Kalam Cosmological Argument, or one of the ontological arguments, or presuppositional arguments etc., all of which I think are flawed anyway, but are supposed to represent "proofs" of god's existence. People have much simpler, and usually very poor reasons for believing covered by the fallacies you mention. I guess you might believe because you are convinced by the historicity and accuracy of the bible, but I found the more I looked at the historicity the more my doubts grew! It just doesn't stand up to scrutiny, not if you are intellectually honest about it I'd say.
I remember thinking on the start of my religious journey (I started with Catholicism) "there are millions of Catholics, there must be something in it right?" without stopping to realise that the number of people who believe something is no indicator of the likelihood of it being true! There are quite a lot of Muslims, Sikhs, and Hindus as well! I did have a lot of fuzzy thoughts in those days!
