"事实是,我们所说的宗教只有在不断争斗的信仰的愚蠢永无止境的伪装中才显得连贯。"

Simplified Meaning:

Religion makes sense to people because there are always different groups arguing about which belief is the right one. Imagine a street with several food stalls, each claiming to sell the best snack. The competition and noise from the vendors shouting about their food make the street lively and exciting. Similarly, different religions each claim to be the true faith, and this ongoing debate keeps people interested and involved in religion. If these stalls were not there, the street would be quiet, and people might not be as excited to visit. The same goes for religion: if there weren't different beliefs arguing their points, people might lose interest. Someone can use this idea to understand why there are so many different religions and why they all insist they are correct. It's the ongoing discussions and disputes that keep the importance of religion alive and engaging for people.
