... and ...

I don't know how to straddle the difference between religion being so rigid as to not allow for any deviation and the need for humans to leave / explore / make mistakes and return home as free men.

But I do know that some aspects of religious / ritual / mythological frameworks provide guidance to the in group on how to grow from childhood to responsibility and finally to the grave.

Those two videos are AMAZING examples of what happens when there is a total dislocation between the individual and the structure. People like Matty end up looking for that struture and find it in total and abject degeneracy.

The lashback comes from finding out that the religion is touted as absolute truth, rather than a lifestyle structure of meeting community, saving funds and tithing, contributing to collective local organizations, etc.. is a complete lie in basis, a fictional santa story. Anyone who looks into the origin of the Mormon bible will find out it's a load of plagarized horse shit that got copied from a specific king james bible and has been AI-analyzed to show the remainder is copied from a text referring to a battle in the new york region (or the countless other tediously cited rebuttals by ex-mormons)

So, LYING to get people to commit to their system is the real failure here. The ultimate degeneracy of their religion. It will likely end in complete failure unless there's a baseline of lower-iq ignorants that refuse to analyze or introspect on such things. They are holding a balloon underwater never questioning or self exploring for deeper meaning. If they test that "Faith" they were raised with, they'll think it's all lies. They completely discard all of it. Every scrap, unfortunately, in many cases

Huh. I never thought about it that way. You can literally see this in every single religion. Thanks for that, I learned something today.
