Abstract: First principle of Text Theory: a thing for which there is a name exists as the effect caused in the Real realm by theword that names it. The monotheistic God is the first non-tribal God who allows to introduce the concept of equalityamong all human beings in the chaotic universe of the Real. In the sphere of the relations between human beings, themost absolute power relation is that established between a mother and her baby. This power increases with thecollapse of the fatherhood function, this being the only institution able to contain such an absolute power. Contrary towhat Modernity had anticipated, the death of God has not led to the reign of rationality, rather it has resulted in thereturn of the ancient madness goddesses. Both Nazism and Stalinism generated paranoiac States, the cohesion ofwhich was built on the love for the Mother Country, tribal goddess who demands bloody sacrifices. Likewise, manyoutstanding contemporary works of art show signs of the fatherhood function collapse and the enthronement of suchmaternal deities.
