Not at all really. Most people probably wouldn't think of religion as the problem and Jesus as the answer and they probably wouldn't question it. He's just trying to make the problems that religion brings explicit and obvious to everyone in a clever way. I mean I never really separated the ideas of Jesus and the church before in the sense that he talks about, and from the looks of thought on nearly everyone else's faces yesterday, they hadn't seen things in the same manner either.
