The women of city A, for example, might be led to believe that it was the will of the priest-kings that they become the slaves of the men of city B, and the women of city B might be led to believe that it was the will of the priest-kings that they become the slaves of the men of city A. To be sure, there is nothing inconsistent in this possibility. I supposed that a woman might, in theory, believe that she, say, because she deserved it, or because it was appropriate for her, was destined to slavery by the priest-kings. Perhaps she would accept this in virtue of the supposed wisdom of priest-kings. Or, even if she thought this a mere whim, or even an arbitrary decision on their part, merely to demonstrate their power, she might reconcile herself to it, indeed, soon joyously submitting to, and accepting, what she takes to be her decreed fate. Some such belief, I supposed, might assist her in her adjustment to bondage. On the other hand, I think that any reference to the will of the priest-kings in these matters is both unnecessary and misleading. - (Witness of Gor, Chapter )
