[So why do infrasovereign religions project thinkanti-object and consciencemost foul onto innocent people?

First, it goes with thinkpro-object and consciencemost_wonderful.   Imagine how liberating one must feel once one has “the solution”.

Second, it strikes fear into those who sort of belong to the organization .  You know, the ones that do not want to be stigmatized and hope to get along.  These subjects are scared into conformity.  Conformity reduces political resistance.

Be skeptical of show trials. Be skeptical of golden calves who say, “Why can’t we all just get along.”]
