Now, that is true religion--which is counter to those who "worship" the same. How one understands a thing is related directly to what they have experienced and their ability to encode those experiences into a linguistic format. Our limitations of being able to abstract and rationalize is not the fault of that which we percieve. i.e. we project our stupidity about things onto the things themselves.
Everyone does it. Everyone. Some more so than others, it depends on how close you keep this awareness close to you --the distinction between self and not self.
If you really desire greater understanding, and not simply another whipping boy, you study and learn what you are and how to be right in thought and deed.
It does not matter what someone else can or cannot achieve in the way of understanding until they harm you directly with their ignorance. Most are offended simply at words, when they don't even bother to study their true meaning or efficacy.
If you seek an understanding of this "god" -- the text tells you how to learn directly. You will not understand much of what you learn, but always remember, it is the learner who does not understand, not the teacher.
