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.

“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
