American is on a grand experiment with "creative destruction": "market forces", values, ego constructions, and worldviews are destroying what has traditionally been the moral and theological center of human selves and society.  That moral center of sympathetic understanding and gifting is grounded in the family and extended family, including one's identification and emotional connection to something larger than self. Family is the center of the social network, and emotional connection, that provides the cultural and psychological feedback mechanisms that construct the "self" and "world".
