«A higher religion imposes a conflict, a division, torment and struggle within the individual... we escape from this strain by attempting to revert to an
identity of religion and culture which prevailed
at a more primitive stage; as when we indulge in alcohol as an anodyne, we consciously seek unconsciousness» (Notes, p. 68) Typically, Eliot did not attempt to lessen the strain; rather, he saw the church as the «salt of the earth,» affecting society
at its
deepest levels.
In contrast, the
deep sequencing analysis of VHH present
at t = 54 shows no over-representation of the sequences which share higher
levels of
identity with the neutralizing VHH than the germ line (Fig. 6).
