Identity Hole

"The 'BIG LIE' is the idea that we are less than divine — that is to say, of less than infinite intrinsic worth.This in turn makes us seek validation by temporal authority in the ordinary world. It is an “identity hole” that we seek to fill via externally supplied spiritual meaning. The absence of that meaning — such as exclusion from the “respectable club” for wrongthink — then becomes a source of overwhelming fear." — Martin Geddes, OYMTC.
