Yes, and then all those people may have been WANTING help to get out of
their rotten and degraded lives (as perceived by them and others).  Then
the church and/or some christian witness happened along and the the person
changed.  The change is itself is NOT conclusive evidence of god/christ/or-
whatever, only that beliefs in god(s) and church institutions can be quite
usual for some people.

Also remember, most people do change continuously throughout their lives
(eg, maturing, changing/modifying opinions/beliefs, etc).  Some people can
change quite drastically, too (bad=>good, good=>bad)!  And even more than
once.
