As chairperson, a biased ego recognizes only certain favored committee members. It silences others who express needs, feelings, or viewpoints that it considers unacceptable by calling them out of order. It censors whatever it doesn’t want to look at or hear about, so that on the surface there appears to be no conflict. “Favored goddess status” is sometimes held by a few or even one goddess, whose views dominate. These are the goddesses with whom the ego identifies.
