We're born inconsistent and tend to rationalize away our cognitive dissonance. Accepting this helps explain the rise of ideologies that promise you can have it all.

We deal with the discomfort of dissonance by rationalizing why we shouldn't have to deal with it.Hoax springs eternal.

In the ideal world, there would be no tension between our priorities and, therefore, no conflict, debate, or doubt. Cheaters wouldn’t win,wouldn’t pay, just behavior would be more successful than unjust behavior, and people wouldn’t be tempted to cut corners to win. It’s not just that God can bend the moral arc. He really wants to. Such imagined overarching wants are what makelittle different from religion. The spiritual often claim to have thrown off the shackles of religion by dropping the idea of god as a man with a white beard. Hairsyle aside, the real question is whether the universe or some higher power wants anything.

Religion addresses that with God’s fourth aim. God is one. He never wants to contradict himself. Could he build a mountain so big he can’t move it? He wouldn’t want to!from conflicting? The answer is utopia. Just assume a dream of complete alignment of all of God’s goals. In heaven, reality is perfect. The world we hope he’d manifest here, manifest there. Perfect justice, no crime, no disputes to resolve. He can make it so because he works in mysterious miraculous ways.
