Human psychology evolved under in the social milieu of constrained complexity. Currently, humans live in unconstrained complexity. What has this done to our minds? These topics are addressed in various parts of An Archaeology of the Fall, particularly in chapters 8C and 11B.

Schoonenberg wrote that we exercise freedom in serving either God or Satan.
[The previous figure complements Schoonenberg’s view.
How?
Well, it provides an excuse.
IF the thought experiment3H regulates the following:
I, seat of choice3V( my choice and something2 ( potentials of something of value1V))
AND IF I, seat of choice3V does not serve God,
THEN the mirror of the world3H is to blame.]
[How does this resonate with Schoonenberg’s claim that we have the freedom to serve God or Satan?
Freedom goes with both the potential of the person1a plus an actuality, the something contextualized by the thought experiment2a.
The thought experiment3a reflects illumination by social elites (or, in general, the Zeitgeist).]

Responsibility3a(2a & freedom2a(1a)
Corresponds to:
Mirror of the world3a( something2a( me1a))]

[Both the ancient Jewish and modern American infra(sovereign) religions possessed objects that bring all subjects into organization.
Both were and are committed to creating the thought experiement3a or a mirror of the world3a.]

[The elite’s desire to blame others for whatever bothers them2a is the ‘something2a’ that holds Americans in bondage.
Progressive experts thrive on representing the good ones and identifying and destroying the bad ones.]

[My own inadequacy in understanding how to fulfill God’s laws2a was the ‘something2a’ that held first century common-folk Jews in bondage.
Paul, on the other hand, originally felt that he counted among the elites.
He knew how to fulfill God’s laws:
Persecute the followers of Jesus.]
[In the above examples, what do I desire?
I want to get along.
Therefore, the elites must never be satisfied with me.
They will always be morally superior in order to force me to pretend to desire things that I would never would desire on my own.
I desire to be left alone.
What I do to accomplish that desire validates the values that valorize elite moral superiority.]
[All systems can be scammed.
All sovereigns are prey for competing infrasovereign religions.
All sovereigns strive to contextualize themselves.
They do so through forced conversion of the ruled populations.
Big Government Liberalism is a state religion composed of an alliance of infrasovereign religions.]

[Universal democracy leads to tyranny.
The Progressives, correspondingly, want universal democracy.]
[The Cult of American Progressivism spews a deluge of words in order to maintain bondage to our particular victimhoods.
Pneumo-pathological mechanisms establish of a sovereign religion.
Those grasping for power have objects that bring subjects into organization.
Thinkpro-object enslaves the subjects who, like all those who went to Jesus and heard only parables, simply do not know any better.]
