Great quote.
I myself am not believer because I want to get to heaven or what. I do not believe because I get something or what, I believe because I was searching for truth. Even if truth would not be 'tasty' I would not close my eyes and subconsciously refuse the truth.
Truth is truth and there is only one truth.
But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.
-- 1 Thessalonians 5:21

For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.
-- Philippians 1:6

“I didn’t go to religion to make me happy. I always knew a bottle of Port would do that. If you want a religion to make you feel really comfortable, I certainly don’t recommend Christianity.”
― C.S. Lewis
