'That word' (hyperlinked to Wisecrack's analysis of MARVEL's evolving psychology) is built on an even-deeper source ... something crucial that firms the foundation upon which the our lexicon stands ...
The word “Figure” is built on “to |Shape (Form, |Build)” (to Represent (in painting or sculpture), make a |Likeness, have a Certain |Appearance, to |Picture in the Mind, Show oneself, Work |Out a Sum (arithmetic)→to |Expect, |Numeral, Human Body represented in Art, Symbol, |Allegory, |Quality, Style, |Sketch, |Drawing).
This is the main reason we think 'our Creator' (whom the Christian community calls 'God' (as if that's our creator's "name" rather than "what Our Creator is") ... so much that we call Allah, Buddha, Zeus, Jupiter-etc. "the other religions 'gods'") is a person? 

Our fathers are 'people who "created" us,' so–as Wisecrack tells us Freud explained–we imagine 'a human-character' as the source of our good fortune—like 'the CEO at the Central-Office who sends out paychecks to our Local-Offices' (i.e. maybe he's a sloppy, ignorant lazy-bones, but we thank him for the goodness he supplies & we continue his work in order to keep the goodness flowing-in).


Or maybe I'm looking at it wrong—that's one reason
 Our Father God said "It is not good for the man to be
 alone":  "Because the man'll think he's right until someone else shows
 him why he's not"—Won't you show me
 if I'm right-or-wrong in the comments below?
