How to justify the unjustifiable or the mimetic desire of societies... The scapegoat always supposes the illusion of persecution. The executioners believe in the guilt of the victims; For example, at the time of the plague in the 14th century, they were convinced that the Jews had poisoned the rivers. The witch hunt implies that both judges and defendants believe in the efficacy of witchcraft. The Gospels gravitate around the passion, like all the mythologies of the world, but the victim rejects all persecutory illusions, refuses the cycle of violence and the sacred. The scapegoat becomes the lamb of God. Thus the credibility of the mythological representation is destroyed forever. From now on, the persecutors will be ashamed persecutors.
