Try again.
Well that's very true. And I think that's it precisely, we all need a place to belong and that was once defined mainly by our relationships with God, family and community, and is now defined abstractly by the state and social media and online shopping in a cybercommunity.
Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire. ― Gustav Mahler
I think they are talking about these things as cornerstones of society. The concept of God can do great or terrible things regardless of it's reality. The civic dedication to a community to where your town or school is important too you.
Basically it's about belonging, taking pride in, that sort of thing. It can be a positive powerful force. A connectedness.
