Those who've been to Iraq or Afghanistan in the past 15 years have seen first hand what damage tribalism or sectarianism can do to a county. If you haven't been to those places I'll fill you in, it ruins them.
Our political parties, Republican or Democrat, are becoming our tribes here in the USA. Christianity or not our sectarian divide.
We like to think we're better than that as a people. More enlightened. More developed. Richer in means to solve issues.
But that is an absolute lie. The nation isn't in its institutions and neither is its people. Look at the failed states in the world where two distinct groups are vying to lift themselves up by pushing another down. We are going to be just like them.
There are universal truths, right and wrong, yes. But the enmity between either side of the growing divide will destroy us as a people, a nation and even an idea.
