Precisely.
We create our own realities. Even so much that we think we're in a place of eternal damnation, when in fact this place is entirely of our own making.
Unfortunately, if you convince enough people to put their belief behind an idea, the power it accrues, transforms it into something else entirely. Then you've shaped an entire paradigm.
