An individual's "model of reality" is built up in a complex layered fashion. The base is genetic which defines a person's physicality, then the model is informed by experience and training. A person with a "typical" life gains experience via their family, neighbors, teachers, and the wider culture. However, each of these experiences and lessons interacts with the deeper layers so the same set of information that's presented to two different individuals will result in two unique arrangements of the resulting "model of reality". Like a sickly, weak boy will get a different model of reality than a healthy, strong boy from the same info. Similarly, a girl will end up with a completely different model of reality than the boys from the very same information.
These disparate models lead to many problems among people who are attempting to live together or work together. I think this is an especially acute problem in the so called "multi-cultural" societies like the US. "Socialization" and "culture" homogenize myriad individual models to a degree. For example, during the middle ages the Roman Empire morphed into the Catholic Church that subsequently went around and "preached" to Northern European people who previously lived in societies of small villages, farms, and who had egalitarian institutions like "the thing". Those people have a significantly higher proportion of ancient European/hunter-gatherer DNA.
I think the northern Europeans never really fully tuned into the Christian religion, which was largely concocted as a joint venture between Roman aristocrats and jews (like Paul, the actual founder of so called catholicism). "Catholic Christianity" split up into "catholicism" and protestantism, which then turned into thousands of sects more appropriate to the northern Europeans.
Eventually, though, the "industrial revolution" and all its institutions, especially financial institutions, rounded up the northern Europeans again in a vast slave society which is what we've been living under for the past century or so. This thing is turning, yet again, into an evil Empire run by psycho "jews" and some very inbred "european" aristocrats. It is even developing a new set of inquisitions and enforced beliefs.
The "enforced beliefs" are what homogenizes and attempts to control the individual's model of reality.
