Reputation's three layers

A reputation is tantamount to
an astronomical entity: it has
a surface/crust, a mantle,
and a core

A reputation is the averaging of people's thoughts and views about a particular object. Someone’s reputation is not his alone because different people define it. He's just the holder of the reputation. Reputations are comparable to climates. Reputations have three layers, making them also equivalent to astronomical entities.

The surface reputation consists of people's thoughts that are completely visible to the reputation holder. The reputation holder can control this layer. Thoughts from the surface reputation reach the reputation holder directly. The mantle reputation consists of thoughts that are partly visible to the reputation holder. People other than the reputation holder can access the mantle reputation. The core reputation is the deepest reputation layer, as it defines the true colors of a reputation holder. It consists of thoughts that will never be heard by the reputation holder at any time. People other than the reputation holder can still access the core reputation but information from this layer will never reach the holder.

Positive thoughts dominate the surface and the mantle reputations. Thoughts about the reputation holder’s secrets usually live in the mantle reputation. Negative thoughts are secured in the core reputation. There are times when someone's reputation becomes ugly but he cannot notice it. This is because his core reputation is larger than the rest of his reputation and most thoughts in this layer are negative. The concept of defamation was invented to limit the issuance of negative statements, no matter the truth values. Defamation is the issuance of a statement that feeds negativity to a reputation. A reputation ameba is a person whose critics are tormented. Blasphemy is the issuance of a statement against an ameba.
