So Carl Jung, again, who is considered hugely influential in modern psychology and really helped to deepen and popularize this inner child concept, he was heavily influenced by the occult and astrology.
And he was one of the foundational figures who influenced what we call the New Age movement, which we've talked about a lot on this show.
You can go back and listen to some former episodes.
You can read my first book.
We talk about that a lot.
Jung did not believe in a traditional conception of God, but he emphasized God as an archetype that occurred across cultures.
That's what he believed about Jesus, someone that we can kind of all aspire to.
You've probably heard of this idea of the Christ consciousness, and while that was not his vision,
main idea that he popularized.
He certainly pushed forward this idea that you can take on the mind of Christ in a way that really is in alignment with Christianity at all.
Again, this kind of pseudo-spiritual terminology.
He also didn't believe in a trinity.
He posited something called a quaternity, with Satan as one of the persons of the Godhead and his archetype.
He believed that good shouldn't really overcome evil, but it should reconcile with evil.
That's according to the Christian Research Institute.
He also wrote that this opposition between good and evil means conflict to the last.
It is the task of humanity to endure this conflict until time or turning point is reached where good and evil begin to relativize themselves, okay?
Until they become relative, to doubt themselves.
And the cry is raised for a morality beyond good and evil, he believed.
