Cognitive dissonance keeps most people from receiving our message

what message is that exactly? is it possible that 'our message' is also religion?

I don't think many people can look into it.

Agreed, only a few look into it - even less look deeper into it (my point in different comments across this post).

You're both on the right track (statism v religion) but you're still just skimming the surface. Dive deeper!
