Most people think religion is a private matter.  They don’t want anyone to talk to them about it.  And they’re certainly not going to open the subject themselves.  “What is between me and God is between me and God”.

I suspect that what is between you and God is that you are ashamed of his son among men.  It could be a lack of education about God.  But one with think that asking questions is more in line with that excuse; learning if you will.
