After the death of my son my wife went bonkers on drugs and alcohol. Because I contributed her behavior to his death I put up with that misery for over a decade (plus I loved her).
What I saw was that her addictions had such a grip on her she never learned from negative payoff after negative payoff after negative payoff ... on and on.
So since it seems some of us hasn't learned by our local church theocracy negative payoff experience, maybe we should ask ourselves if we have an addiction to authoritarianism, and theocracy, and need, down to the cellular level, like a drug, a dictatorial leader. And Cahn is a fix ; a needle in the arm, metaphorically speaking.
