Are we, French players nuts?

I have noticed that when a French players talk about "their" defence is like when a priest talks about religion. Usually a French player thinks 1.e4 e6 and Black wins. It seems a matter of faith. A French player very seldom abandon it. I have been playing the French for 10 years now I am thinking about playing it 10 years more. What do you think?
