  Nate Hagens of The Great Simplification (TGS) recently posted an eye-opening Frankly on YouTube which he refers to as "Wide Boundaries" (here) He identifies three (3) major layers: (1) At the top is the layer built out of the everyday narratives we tell ourselves about money, finance, politics, legal obligations.

I was watching one of the Goobie/Dobie videos ( at this time spot ) --snapshot to the right -- when he brought up this idea that a person can elect to subjugate him/herself to the dictates of another person OR to the dictates of a mental construct inside the subjugated person's mind. So, that mental construct could be a religion. And in particular, a religion that excuses harm to, or killing of other persons if those "others" do not obey the dictates of the religion.
