Our ego keeps us safe while pursuing advantage. And our ego depends upon a context which we take for granted.
Our largest context is the Creator of the Universe and perhaps our smallest is mbti.
Neither context is based on evidence and reason, but that doesn't matter because our ego is only concerned with what is of advantage or disadvantage to us.
To mature it is necessary to learn to think not only in terms of advantage but also to think in terms of contexts.
This is impossible for the ego to do.
