The more you explain it, the more I don't understand it

Under certain circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer."

[Mark Twain, a Biography]

It ain't the parts of the Bible that I can't understand that bother me, it is the parts that I do understand.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you
