The College Degree Decision: Environmental Anthropology

After retracing the Celtic ancestry and seeing that my tribal roots go back to Ancient Africa and Egypt, I decided that since my tribe fled oppression and was conquered at least 3 times anyhow that running from oppression and living out in some eco-community which is not developed enough is not logical.  We need to stay connected to the internet so we can help spread social awareness about things like green economics, indigenous rights, and gender equality.  That said, since this is a credentialist society, I plan to return to college to pursue an associate of arts and transfer for a B.A. in Environmental Anthropology and then further my education to get a PhD.  I plan to join an Environmentalist group, the Green party, and a Tribalist Druid order(an alliance of tribal ecocentric shamans) while I'm attending College.  My Existential Nihilism and Anarcho-communism phase is over and I'm realizing that there is a natural rank structure in existence.  It's natural for humans to form a complex rank structure; however, I do reject the position of Warrior Chief and the position of High King or "Prime Minister."  In the form of Neo-Druidism I support the Druid order is an Alliance of Tribes, Social networking organization, and a Treaty organization.  It's there for people to discuss matters; however, the law will need to be handled in the local Druidic Groves(the local Druid counsels).  I've already studied Environmental Anthropology for some time now and have noticed that the Celts had a culture which the "Holy Roman Empire" sought to hide from people.  I asked myself why they sought to hide that culture so much and realized that it's partly because it's a culture which involved the poly-pantheistic "Deities of Nature" being members of the tribe instead of beings in some distant realm disconnected from our reality.  Once one subtracts the alcoholism and the warrior ethos obsession from the Celtic culture, it's actually a very empowering culture.  The culture is rich in symbolism which expresses a focus on tribal unity and harnessing the power of nature.  Instead of praying to some distant dogmatic deity, the Celts prayed to their Deities of Nature as members of the tribe and also archetypes of self and nature.  In that aspect, I believe they were actually an advanced civilization for their time because they already understood the concept of oneness and knew about the archetypes of self and the force of nature.  They also understood that folklore was more than just storytelling and their archetypes of nature were embedded in their folklore and their culture so that it could live on even after they were conquered and so that children could learn about scientific matters before actually learning the more complex concepts.
    Studying the Celts is in some ways like studying an advanced E.T. species which came to Earth to drop off a few symbols, artifacts, and folk tales for us to learn from.  Even though they were suffering from alcoholism and an obsession with warrior ethos they left us some precious pieces which can help us bring the ecocentric shamanic cultures of ancient man into the modern world as part of a solution for the current ecospherical crisis we are enduring. The tribes shall rise again; however, this time we have a credential system and may actually listen to the shaman this time because the shaman is recognized as a person who is more wise than the warrior chief.  During the Neolithic period humanity drank beverages which were not meant to be consumed.  There may have been Tribal Shaman who told the guardians defending the tribe to use the alcohol for wounds instead of using it as a beverage; however, it seems like that Tribal Shaman may have been beaten to death and that some of those skulls which appear to have been brutally beaten are evidence of man's digression into alcoholism and warrior ethos obsession.  I don't put antibiotics into the intestines of this body, because I've studied Environmental Anthropology enough to see the link between drinking antibiotic beverages and war.  There is probiotic beer available for people who prefer to promote life within their body.  The term probiotic means "life-promoting" whilst the term "antibiotic" means "life-threatening." 
    It's really tragic that humanity followed the alcoholic warrior chiefs around the globe and almost went extinct to learn something an Ecocentric Tribal Shaman may have told someone after praying to the poly-pantheistic "Deities of Nature"(the great spirits) but was punished for being more in tune with nature than the alcoholic warrior chief.  The time of the warrior chief is coming to an end and I'm ready to celebrate that reality I plan to help co-create.  I think that celebrating the potential of us co-creating a more peaceful union of tribes is something to look forward to.  I support a tribal ecocentric shamanic meritocratic cyclical system of counsel. I have more research to do; however, know that central authority is actually contributing to much destruction so I plan to help provide evidence which proves that an alliance of local tribal governments is actually achievable, can be well defended, and be more stable than the current system.  There is a logical method involved and I plan to help prove that this is where humanity needs to stop thinking we achieved great things we didn't achieve and needs to realize that in a sense we're back in ancient Africa venturing out of a cycle of corruption and this time we need to avoid appointing the warrior chief and need to avoid alcoholism after this current civilization decentralizes into a more tribal society.  We now have computers to archive our history and the harsh lessons we learned from defying the law of nature.  We can also combine elements from various tribal cultures and archive them so that we learn from the mistakes of previous civilizations and salvage what humanity did achieve so that we can provide ancient wisdom for each generation and a sense of knowing our roots.  Again, my career is in Environmental Anthropology and I plan to attend college for a degree in such and plan to be a member of an Environmentalist group, a Druid Alliance of Tribes, and the Green party.  I believe that the Green party is a step toward a tribal alliance which can actually be well defended without contributing to the extinction of our species and others.  The artwork at the top of the page is a banner I put together of Celtic symbols which I feel kindred to.  It's currently my facebook banner and I made another one for my meetup group banner.  The Celtic Knotwork in the banner symbolizes the cyclical nature to the endless knot which is existence, the power of tribal unity, and the beauty in gender equality.  I do support eco-tribalism; however, do plan to return to college when I'm ready to receive education in Environmental Anthropology so I can use that degree to promote social awareness about practical solutions to the current issues which plague society.  In some ways, the tribal alliance treaty organization I support is similar to the current American republic in some ways; however, the authority is held locally and projected into a treaty counsel through the power of a local board of counsel instead of being granted to an outside entity in another district.  Operation Iraqi Freedom serves as evidence that a coalition military force can help handle defense.  I served in that war and coalition war strategy does work.  Again, my current decision is to attend college for a degree in environmental anthropology, join an environmentalist group, join a Druid Alliance of Tribes, and join the Green party to promote environmental justice.  I'm still learning the law of nature and learning to use my shamanic abilities as every Druid's learning is continual.  Everything I've said is subject to evolution.  Humanity, I wish you wellness! Peace!
