Children are fascinated by fairytales. The ogre and the wolf represent the law and the father; the good fairy is a substitute for the mother. However, poisoned needles and magic wands do not fascinate the adult, stripped as they are of their symbolism. Sectarian doctrines are fairytales for adults, where fantasy takes the place of reality, where the dream of power erases social frustration and where divinity is within reach of all by the phenomenon of transcendence. Religion gives super-human power only to the mystics, whereas sects make it gleam in the eyes of the more humble.
