By the way, I love America and value being an American. I'm just saying we should be careful not to indulge in group-think no matter what tribe we belong to, and not feel threatened by the points of view of "the other".

  • do you really think it's "strange?" adhering to the group seems pretty Darwinian to me.

  • @BillKiernan It's more the way it causes people to think - not so much as an individual, but part of a collective. It may be a commonly overlooked reason why people are closed off to critiques of their religion, country, political parties, etc. which has nothing to do with the actual arguments or criticisms. Like being part of a group helps turn that part of the brain off, and puts them almost entirely on the defensive.

  • You and StealthBadger have a bit to talk about.  (this is one of his themes)

  • @aMulliganStew Next time I see him perhaps I'll bring it up!
