Sigmund Freud

“Mankind as a whole also passed through conflicts of a sexual aggressive nature which left permanent traces, but which were for the most part warded off and forgotten, later after a long period of latency, they came to life again and created phenomena similar in structure and tendency to neurotic symptoms… I have, I believe, divined these processes and wish to show that their consequences, which bear a strong resemblance to neurotic symptoms, are the phenomena of religion.”
-Moses and Monotheism
