Just as acceptance of explicitly religious systems and membership of officially religious organizations can give rise to psychological conflict, as well as helping to resolve it, so implicitly religious conformity can produce epistemological conflict and confusion, in the event of cognitive dissonance. The case of Charles, employed by a large international bank, illustrates this, and draws attention to the ethical dimension of organizational religions—and of Implied Religion itself
