The creative principle is less about dogma and more about opening ourselves to the evolution of consciousness.
All people have a natural desire to be needed, to have their importance to others tangibly confirmed.

The universal human laws - need, love for the beloved, fear, hunger, periodic exaltation, the kindness that rises up naturally in the absence of hunger/fear/pain - are constant, predictable, reliable, universal, and are merely ornamented with the details of local culture.

Every dogma, every philosophic or theological creed, was at its inception a statement in terms of the intellect of a certain inner experience.
That which is so universal as death must be a benefit.
