Individuals
within
a
culture
that espouses specific
or
unique beliefs, especially in the
presence of authoritarian or peer-group pressure, may find it extremely
difficult to go against prevailing beliefs. These beliefs can range from clothing styles, what foods are acceptable to eat, what professions or careers are acceptable, to politics, and religions that promote the handling of poisonous snakes ... to name just a few.
There
are consequences for bucking a “party line” (family, culture, politics,
religion . . .) and those who
do so may risk
persecution, imprisonment, expulsion, and even death. More tomorrow.
