It seems to me a simple combination of the confusion to describe consciousness (which is none other than neurological changes created by the body doing things outside its control) with social norms, language, entropy, and the subjectivity of physical existence.
What the hell does entropy have to do with this? Are you just using fancy words to try to make yourself seem smart?
"Sisters, you know only the north; I have traveled in the south lands. There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too, as the people of Bolvangar did--not in the same way, but just as horribly. They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel. That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling. So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other, no matter what strange allies we find ourselves bound to."
