Okay, so the ideas and messages that I was trying to get across (which I believed aren't getting through due to poor communication skills) may be further hampered because the ideas and messages themselves are flawed, as they aren't designed to persuade a typical mindset anyway?

If that's what you mean, I can see that as a deeper problem I'd have to address before moving on, because no matter what improvements I'd make to my communication style, the root ideas would still not be effective.
