Coming close to religion and psychoanalysis, he takes the psychoanalytic treatment of a faithful to God patient as motivation to analyze the transference, the chosen of a religious life under the light of the psychoanalysis and the religion as a neurotic symptom. The author points out other kind of faith followers, who not completely dependent of God, are protagonists of their own lives, without giving up the protection of God.
