Tribalism

Tribalism is "the state or fact of being organized in a tribe or tribes." So, Tribalism is said to be the state of being organized in or an advocate for a traditional society consisting of families or communities.

In terms of conformity, tribalism may also refer in popular cultural terms to a way of thinking or behaving in which people are loyal to their own tribe or social group. The early Christian community was composed of such tribes much like early Israel although the word tribe was seldom used.

Tribalism has been defined as "a 'way of being' based upon variable combinations of kinship-based organization, reciprocal exchange, manual production, oral communication and analogical enquiry."

Tribalism in a derogatory sense is said to be "a society motivated by cultural tribalism".

In tribalism Culture matters.

Despite postmodernism's ambition to believe human nature is a social construct and through social engineering man may be recreated in the desired of the woke postmodernist.

The truth is it is the human soul that constructs human nature

Social rules rule the outcome of as tribe. The survival of a tribe will often be determined by a generational acceptance of those cultural rules or guideposts or the often subjective interpretation of those rules.

The bible is certainly an example of this subjective interpretation.

City to tribe

Abraham left Ur and Haran which were cities and went out and did something different with his Altars of Clay and stone.

Customary tribes have their social foundations in some variation of tribal orientations based in common values and beliefs, while often taking on traditional practices (e.g. Abrahamic religions such as Christianity and Judaism), and modern practices, including monetary exchange, mobile communications, and modern education.

The early Church did use terms like kindred, brother, brethren, adoption, born again... all of which denote the idea of "kinship-based organization". The early Church like the Church in the wilderness united the people in natural systems much like the tribes of early Israel.

Wobbly wampum

The myth of the "Noble Redman" is a worthy story in the creation of heroes for the next generation, but it remains a fiction from an historical perspective.

Tribalism and all it produces contradicted any idea of universal egalitarianism among the native American people who were killing, invading, enslaving, raping, and oppressing each other from one end of the Americas to the other.

While there were also good, noble, and moral native Americans they were the exception rather than the rule like all other nations or races of people.

To counter the destructive practices of tribalism a believe a wiseman decided the White Pine Confederacy among some of the native American tribes.

There is no race, nor tribe and nation that has a monopoly on righteousness nor unrighteousness. Nor is there any ideology that can long be a substitute for righteousness.

Value of virtue

Which practices, values, virtues strengthen or degenerate society.

Is your society tribal?

Does it include all mankind?

The self evident truth is all men are created equal.

What are the practices, values, and virtues of your tribe and do those value supercede the tribe itself?

Does the tribe value appearance over substance and values.

Cain and Abel had different values and practices. Shepherd vs power of adamah.

Micro tribe

Men and women as a family form a micro tribe.

All the same principles that make or break a village, a tribe, or a nation will also play out in the family.

A man is assertive by his male nature. His hormones genetically and biologically design him so. But we are not just genetic and biological.

If a woman has to be a boss in business she may have to take on an assertive character of a male.

Their female nature experiences an embalance and she may feel a need to be more agreeable out of the office which can be presented as a more passive form of power assertiveness.

This embalance creates a duality in her personality. That dual dinamic may be confusing and may even make a woman vulnerable because by her nature she me feel a need to compensate for that assertiveness when she is not at work.

That wobbling between two different personalities mixed with trauma be even generate a more bipolar pattern.

They may create a feeling or a hidden need to be to more agreeable in their private life to bring balance back.

Some men, who may also be suffering an internal may sense that need and manipulate the woman to satisfy feelings in themselves.

Through a narssasistic relationship the may use and even abuse a woman who is not fully aware of the truth about herself.

These conflict and emotional confusion may even draw that kind of man to them.

Patterns will often repeat until something occurs to break the cycle.
