It is odd that the good books say not to worship the symbols but the understanding. However man does not take well to a spiritual job ... that's spooky and he is afear in the dark. Last night on Jeopardy they introduced a question regarding misanthropy as the "hate" of mankind. Webster states the word means "fear", but then fear is the root of hate ... and caring, well; that is another matter ... ante mana? Ides worth digging into: mana of understanding.
