Fair enough! One could argue that the nature of the social organization shifted significantly post-temple... But I'd be arguing on your side. Now Buddhism or Jainism, I suppose they would take the prize for longest lasting institutions?
- fortran77 6y agoBuddhism or Jainism may have established social rituals that have been going on longer, I'm not sure. But I always laugh at the "long now" people. If you look at the earliest Jewish writings found, and compare them to what we read and study today, you'll see we've had a lot of continuity over the years and have found a social model that works for this--despite the best efforts of the rest of the world.
