Is there something in some people's brains that make them more susceptible to stupid beliefs, like religion?

The science is not yet conclusive, but research has indicated that certain parts of the brain may be more active among people who believe in religion. In addition, brain scans have revealed that areas associated with emotion, reward, and pleasure are more sensitive among people who are more religious. Research has also suggested that people's propensity for religious belief is influenced by other factors, such as stress and genetics. Ultimately, this may explain why some individuals are more likely than others to adopt a set of religious beliefs.
