I personally know people who study Christianity for a living (I actually live with one), and are quite aware of not only what Christianity is, but constantly try to know more about where did those ideas come from and for example how did the Bible come to be what it is. (Who wrote what, when, where and why, what was excluded and why...) And yes, what they do is actually ranked to be pretty good science.
I really don't see how you could build a case that these people are somehow in denial of... I'm not actually sure what you are saying they are in denial about. They sure as hell know much more about what religion and Christianity are than both of us combined.
Believing is so much more complex than you would like to believe. Personally I think it's you who is in denial about the fact that religious beliefs and critical thought are not mutually exclusive.
