Just think if you'd spent years, thousands of hours and dollars creating a trading system which finally you discovered doesn't work, doesn't suit your personality, is too onerous, too time consuming, creates too much stress, too buggy. That happened to me once when attempting to create an automated day trading system.
There was this fear of failure, there was a fear of continuing, there was a fear on having to make a major decision, continue or abandon.

When you sink your all into a religion, it's virtually the same thing.
Can I admit defeat, can I give up, if I continue am I wasting time, if I discontinue what then do I do, what's right, what's wrong, have I thought this through.
Can I be disparate enough from myself to make an informed decision.
What was leading me into my past decisions and what leads me into the future.

Am I man enough to throw in the bin all that work I've done.
Am I a hoarder who wants to hang onto clutter I've created.

Lets look at probabilities.
Those countries in the world which are most heavily religous are those most dysfunctional, often largely corrupt as well.

America too is largely religous, and certain states more than others.
The level of dysfunction not so serious but America is not without a huge amount of social problems and poverty.

The more fundamentalist Christian/religion, the more fucked up.

@themickey you are speaking as one who doesn't, and never has had, a true relationship with Jesus. If you did have a true relationship with Jesus, then you would never think like this, instead the longer you know Him, the more you want to know Him better. He is "the desire of all nations" Haggai 2:7

Here. This is just for you @themickey. It's a song that I like that has a world view that you will think is cultish. I really wish you wouldn't mock, because mocking is very serious in God's eyes, since it shows complete rejection. :( For your own good, just listen (if you can handle getting through the song, probably not your style) and don't mock.
