That we are, Weby

It is all too easy to simply go clopping off, moo-ing with the herd.

In caveman days, outsiders often spelled trouble. Sticking with your group was the best path to survival. But, you know what I think of the application of those old evolutionary principles in the modern world...

I do think that we are sometimes at a disadvantage in today's modern society because of our tribalistic tendencies. I also think that we are obligated to realize the pitfalls of our tribalism, and seek to minimize it's negative effects.

As a Psych major, I would also say that you can think of it as getting in touch with your amygdala, and learning to tune it out at times. (A skill that I sometimes sadly lack)
