I shifted a few times on your opinion Pat, but I am sure that I agree.
In the best way it would fundamentally change the landscape of our
relationships, institutions and international relationships. In the
worst, which is the one I struggled with for a long time: that one may
understand things but not agree with them. What we have today I think is
agreeing w/things we do not understand: mostly politics and 'trophies'...
Hope, trust, and will may be removed over a long time or suddenly and
community ought to provide the safety net. So logically the next
question we could ask is, what can we do to promote this community
(communities) within our society?
+1 for empathy

of though, other than things that will fade. maybe friends. though
friends are not a part of culture, but life. so where does that take
it... we sing songs of love, but could we call that part of the
american trophy box. and what would you add to our culture if you
could have everyone accept it as much a Christmas (or similar holiday)?
What would I add: that all humans (you did say 'our' culture, so I'm
excluding, for the sake of your question, any other species--but ONLY
for the sake of they way you worded the question) empathise with one
another as best they can.
