I wonder if there is some self-censoring mechanism within each of us that limits our direction? We can go this far and no farther/further?

Isn't that what dogma is? A set standard of "correct" that one must embrace to belong to anything?

Is dogma thought up by one and embraced by the many or is it the many in conspiracy and collusion who create the dogma?

Must there always be an underlying "reason" well thought out and logical?
