Christianity works, it is correct and good, however people just don't like this or that part of it. Christianity is kind of like health food in this regards. It is extremely healthy for you, but who likes broccoli, Brussel sprouts, spinach, and wheat germ, etc? Also Christianity's ultimate step is to make the Almighty God the God of your life, and many people just do not want to take that step.
So, they come up with a more appealing version of Christianity. Usually one without all those "cumbersome" rules of behavior and especially without having to take the ultimate plunge into becoming the real thing, a real Christian. Instead you get to do all these meaningless religious exercises that they make up.
That is the short answer, and of course they are just shams, knock-off brands of the real thing.

Why do people believe in Christianity when it branches off of Judaism and leeches off of Paganism? =)
It's mankind trying to describe/define something that is beyond our comprehension. I'm sure a lot of it is made up... But I'm not so quick to throw the baby out with the bathwater when it comes to these things. I prefer to take an honest look at it and try not to be biased.

It is all made up. It is scary that the majority of people on this planet are living a delusion. It makes them do bad things, like run planes into buildings. It is very much a cause for concern.

Satan's chief goal is to deceive Christians.He already has the souls of non-believers.The many sects and denominations are all daughter harlots of Roman Catholicism.Believers are but a small remnant in this world.If God does not exist....why do people like you waste your time talking about it?

faith is the final bastion of lack of understanding. it is the only part of recent existence that desires no evidence for somebody to believe. If I instructed you i could fly without information from the different gadget different than my perception, would you suspect me? would you no longer require evidence that i will try this, or would you purely believe me in view that I instructed you it is so? Very simplistic occasion, yet why will we believe in this God that curiously exists yet shows no evidence of himself? faith may be the undoing of mankind. look by using history and attempt to discover any conflict between peoples that would not have self assurance or some form of superiority perception at it is base. complicated isn't it?

IT is storytelling,, mostly history,, but played out in fairy tales.
Then there is still the money thing.
