    I guess I'm not, for the moment, as interested in the question of why Te'o allegedly believed this story as I am in the question of why we all believed this story. It is, after all, a little improbable in retrospect. There are a fair number of beautiful young women in the world, a smaller number who are girlfriends of star linebackers, an even smaller number who then have car crashes, and an even smaller number who, upon surviving the car crash, come down with leukemia during their boyfriend's final, iconic, championship season. (And by the way, an even smaller number who go on to die of that leukemia, since the cure rates for ALL — which, I'm assuming is the kind of leukemia she would have had at that age, had she been real — are now north of 90 percent.) It's a stretch, in other words.

    i don't konw about other christians but i can personally attest that for Catholics it is the moment they have a kid they all of a sudden become religious. My entire extended family was that way. I grew up in South Louisiana. Pretty much everyone is Catholic along the I-10 corridor in Louisiana and they are all like that.
