Phil HL - Jung - Archetypes

For
1. believers say religion has benefits for the wellbeing of the personality
2. religious experience: has the person identified their common core?
3. doesn't argue for or against God
Against
1. Roheim: religious experience is mostly the same, therefore similar images are distinct?
2. Jung's understanding of religious experience is too broad
3. logical fallacy? if nothing outside the mind can be proven then we cannot reject this claim.
What is it about?
1. The Psyche is split into 3
  1. inner: EGO
    1. middle: Personal unconscious
      1. Outer: Collective unconscious
        inherited, common to all
        nothing to do with experience
        has images from archetypes
      2. unique to individual
      3. developed through life
        influenced by history, culture
      4. contains forgotten memories
    2. the individual's conscious
2. Belief in God can be explained by the structure of the mind
  1. it balances the personality (to become psychologically whole)
  2. individuation: acheiving a balance between the libido and mental health
    1. 1. character is developed as psyche adapts to demands of environment and relationships
      1. 2. Understanding God to get a sense of the Self
