"To the extent that our conscious beliefs are in tension with the universal features of human experience, we are split within ourselves. We do not experience psychic wholeness, since our emotions, valuations and purposes and consequently our behavior are informed by conflicting beliefs. For the sake of psychic wholeness and consistency of action, it is important for our conscious beliefs to correspond with the prereflective beliefs involved in our primordial experience."
— from Process Theology: An Introductory Exposition by John B. Cobb, Jr. and David Ray Griffin
