The United States is a democratic nation of many tribes. It certainly is not perfect. But if each
"tribe" - the Irish, the Catholics, blacks, Muslims (including Shiites and Sunnis), gays, Christians, agnostics, Unitarian-Universalists, pagans, Jews, Christian Scientists, Quakers - If each one subscribed to the intolerant practices advocated in this piece, the nation would not survive. As soon as the nation includes members of more than one tribe, tribalism must give way. Otherwise you have exclusion, discrimination, ethnic cleansing, warfare. We must love each other, tolerate each other, be kind to one another, respect each others' beliefs.
