How does one hold two contradictory beliefs despite the blatant incoherence between the two?

I was wondering: Religious people say their god is supernatural, attribute which comes with all sorts of perks, including the fact that we cannot either completely experience it or understand it.

Now, assuming they’re right (and this goes expecially for christians who also say that the ways of their god are unknowable by men) why the fuck are they always going around telling other people what the will of their god is?

How can they know? How can they think they know if they believe god is supernatural? If god is supernatural you shouldn’t be able to experince it or understand it, but somehow those people think they’re capable of knowing what he thinks about stuff? Do they think the rules don’t apply to them? Are they simply full of shit?

And not only that but apparently god has great fun in giving mixed messages around, since apparently he always agrees with people with different opinions.

What do you think?
