We human are influenced by words or ideas and our decision is only as good as our information. Most of the information we have is second hand and given to us like Mosaic Law written in tablets. Math using some axiom is vulnerable to err if the axioms are not true. No matter how rigorous and beautiful as it seems, no mathematics can prove its own axiom. We have to rely on the axiom to be true without proof. Similarly we build our world starting with second hand  and often politico-religiously biased words and information resulting in bad decisions and dissatisfaction which make us shun away from finding the question that is really important. All ideologies are biased and not helping much. If you need other person's interpretation to see whats going on then you are becoming a victim of ideology that might have a flaw or hidden agenda. Because you are attached to that ideology, you become blinded by the blind spots (of Godel). Unless you find out and assess the validity of the information that was passed to you, for yourself, where the information comes from, what was the original context, nothing will make any sense, and you will fall into prototypical "why bother, nothing is important. So just enjoy your life with football, alcohol, sex, drugs,  and rock n' roll."  As a matter of fact, nothing is hidden from you, everything is in front of your very eye. If one fool [like me] can see it, so does the other fools.
All it takes is the sincere willingness to know by observing and thinking for yourself and joining the pieces of puzzle that will show you the big picture. Its very convenient to pretend to be carefully oblivious so that no one can suspect that you are just an ignorant and thus avoiding the minor psychological inconvenience. Remember, there is a ongoing conflicts between light and darkness for your mind inside you and outside you. So don't be gullible. Don't assume any information unequivocally from one agent or another without assessing it by your judgement and wisdom. Put more weight on your own wisdom, only when you can see how your thoughts can be influenced!
