"According to Freud's preface to Reik's treatise on the psychology of religion, a psychoanalytic examination of prehistoric and ethnological materials reveals that God the Father once had human shape and ruled over the primal human tribe, until his sons united to kill him. This crime and the reactions to it gave rise to the first social ties, basic moral restrictions and the earliest form of religion (totemism)" [Norman Catalog].
