Transformation from Atheism to Belief and Crisis of Investiture
This chapter explores the transformation of a person from atheism to belief after a personal experience, drawing connections to biblical stories and the concept of the primal father. It delves into the crisis of investiture, the absorption of the crisis of modernity, and the lack of comprehension of the living by Schreber's God. The chapter also discusses the shift in authority from the symbolic father to doctors in public health and the influence of neuroscientist Flexic on Freud's understanding of mental illness.
