More Musings: Illusionary Personalities

Institutions are illusionary personalities that are served, protected, and adhered to. In the case of religiosity this is more akin to an idol than simply a useful organization of common cause and beneficiaries of scale.

Is part of the problem of institutionalism the interaction with an illusory man?

How does this bring us into bondage?

How is this illusory man an agent of manipulation and appeasement?

Is the strong desire for this illusory man because it is something we can use and control and/or it is something that we can see, touch, and have certainty about?
