With so many versions, and only one 'true' god, how do relligious people know they have the right one. And in their hearts of hearts, do they really believe and why?

That is one of the benefits of brainwashing.
"One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We're no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It's simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we've been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back." ~ Carl Sagan (on religion)
"Well... if it made any sense, you wouldn't have to accept it on 'faith', would you now?" ~ from Nuns On The Run
