Looking at it from an economic or technological point of view by Ilchi Lee, the world is already a unified whole, with financial transactions completed on the Internet in a fraction of a second, without regard to countries or religions. However, from a cultural or traditional point of view, humanity is still living in units defined by nations or ethnic groups. Although there is an effort underway, such as in the European Commonwealth, to expand the traditional political boundaries, humanity has not been able to escape the prison of nationality when it comes to expanding cultural boundaries. As the Soviet experiment has shown, attempts to forcibly unify different cultures and nationalities come to an explosive head as soon as the controlling external force is eliminated.
The United States is perhaps the only successful example of different people living together as one national unit. The main reason for this success probably lies in that the U.S. never bothered to acknowledge or focus on the bewildering array of cultures represented by her citizens; instead, she built a society based upon an implied social contract that specified specific behavioral limits for all based on basic social values held in common by the founding majority. The Founding Fathers built a system in which only the most essential issues had to be agreed upon, the rest of the details being left to each person’s own choice and expression.
Generally, unlike the U.S.. the various human cultural traditions are still limited by nationality. So are our gods. Do you believe in a god? If so. find out the nationality of your god. The gods that we know today have their bases in specific nationalities.
