Views on Freud: Civilization and its Discontents Chapter 1 part 3

Ok, I took a break now I am back on track.
In My last post, I discussed Freud’s opinions on the ‘oceanic’ feeling that causes people to believe in god, and my opinions on the subject.
Freud writes “I have nothing to suggest which could have a decisive influence on the solution of this problem.”
“this Idea of men’s receiving an intimation of their connection with the world around them through an immediate feeling which is from the outset directed to that purpose sounds so strange and fits in so badly with the fabric of our psychology that one is justified in attempting to discover a psycho-analytic, that is, a genetic explanation of such a feeling.”
With those few lines Freud refutes any idea of such a feeling as part of the human experience. Basically what he is saying is that a blind person would be able to say the same thing regarding our ability to see. Our experiences cannot be measured or proven. Our only ability to know that they exist is by – experience.

The first question that comes to mind is ‘why’.
Why does it sound so strange?
Why does it fit so badly with the fabric of our psychology?
He goes on “Normally, there is nothing of which we are more certain than the feeling of our self, of our own ego.”
Normally? NORMALLY???? How can normality take any part in this idea at all?
In order for us to try to comprehend the human experience we cannot view it in the eyes of the common man!
In order to create a framework, there must be consistency amongst all ideas of thought, not only those which suite our idea and argument!
He goes on to explain that the ego is not a single entity but there is something behind it the ‘id’, though externally it seems that this ego decouples itself from other entities. Except for one situation – “Against all his senses, a man who is in love declares that ‘I’ and ‘you’ are one, and is prepared to behave as if it were a fact.”
In this case I must agree to a certain degree, though I wouldn’t look at it as a problem but rather a superior state of mind; a moment where thought replaces the human and physical notions of our physical needs and essentially – when we are talking about the love of a man and a woman (or what ever to sexes you feel like filling in) – the human experience not only becomes one but replaces each other creating an entity which is similar to a double helix.
