This chapter explores Friedrich Nietzsche's critique of philosophers who develop theories of morality based on rational thinking and emphasizes the transmission of morality through absorbing mythical images and stories. It delves into the concept of archetypes, particularly the Great Mother and the Great Father, and their significance in myths and religion. The chapter also discusses the importance of social norms and cultural taboos in regulating human behavior and the potential negative side of the great father archetype as a tyrant.
