An investigation of how tribalism affected the evolution of the human mind. The analysis reveals a process that beliefs are a primary means of group identification and are a natural component of the evolution of human thought and culture.

Us Against Them argues that the essential difference between the religious/conservative and the secular/liberal is driven by tribalism, not ideology.
