TRANSFERENCE

How much does one transfer onto others - what one experiences - from another relationship?

What goes on in second marriages?

When we call God "Our Father" - how much are the ways and likeness of God -  the ways and likenesses of our dad?

When we see someone with a statoscope and a doctor's jacket, do we interact with them as we think we should interact with a doctor?

What about police, priests, Protestant ministers, judges, politicians, waiters, waitresses?

Counselors, psychologists, are taught about transference - to use it for the other person's benefit - not their hurt,  They are taught to try to be aware of what's going on in the present situation.

Or they use the word, "counter-transference" in this game as well.

Does Jesus get put on his shoulders all the anger, hate frustration, people have with God, with people who are seen as Goody Two Shoes, etc.

Why do people rejoice with the good guy, the Holy Man, when they step on or slip on the banana peel.
