>Love it!  The Mennonite tribe!  As a Mennonite myself, it makes me chuckle.


I was using the word tribe for the Mennonites to just emphazis how far off
our social organisation is from our genetically programmed .need .to live in
tribe.

The difference in social organisation between the old  christian orders and
the modern individualistic societies is allready  well marked but for sure
in comparaison  with  what we  are geneticaly expecting  to experience , The
mennonite did a long way off track like any of  the other post neolithic
cultures. Yet they have some sort of collective sense that we have  lost
We are at the tip of a nonsens.
