I guess the idea that it is “our” philosophy is one I would argue with. It is what Jesus said, He said most people wouldn’t like it, and He has been proven correct.
Most people think it is too easy, doesn’t give them credit for their self worth, don’t need any help, don’t want to believe in a hereafter, etc.
You are completely normal in your belief that it sounds wrong.
Scripture states
“To Them that perish
The Gospel is Foolishness.”
