hi again dave & friend. interesting what you had to say about levels of info incongruity... i'm taking mental notes and can always use a new more helpful conceptual framework. in regards to what your guest/cohost has to say um jeremy rifkin when speaking of the need for us to become a more globally empathic people points to tribalism (blood ties), religion (religous ties) & nationalism (ideology) as myths that have had a unifying power for humanity. this i think is what needs to be mentioned when the young lady in the video here points up the parallel between all too human approach to religion & politics... its likely there this almost complete overlap in the sense that they are same because they are both grand myths
