Is it just me or does this kind of attitude and behavior remind you of not just primitive human tribes but also any of the primate, especially ape, societies where there is an evolutionary and hard wired programming in the brain to respond positively and even have a longing, if it's absent, for the presence of a powerful and angry alpha male to whom you can defer all protection and guidance and be utterly submissive to?
When studying Chimps or Apes we call this ethology (The study of animal behavior) but when looking at the same type of behavior in humans it could equally be called religion.
