They get them from their pastors and because they're convinced by the circular logic, they think everyone else will be too. It's called second hand thinking.

Cause they are just that "religious".
True believers just spill it out and let you make your own choices. However, some people just have that way of explaining things. They can'not help it. It is all they know how to do it
God Bless

Usually religious people, and their arguments, are driven by faith and not necessarily logic. To a non-religious, logical person, these arguments seem inappropriate and sometimes ridiculous.

they're called parables in the Bible..... and i don't know what you mean by inappropriate but religion is hard to understand unless you have something to relate it to... thus the similes and analogies

If they were knowledgeble enough to appropriately use similies and analogies, they wouldn't be religious in the first place.

It's called Indoctrination.

Care to elaborate on that? Or is this just the typical bashing by a typical atheist?

It's like a cat and a dog, sometimes you just have to watch for fleas.
