Document Summary
Your brain is incredibly intricate network of neurons, much like a culture is a network of people. These neurons communicate mongst themselves and form larger patterns and structures much like our culture communicates and forms insitiurions and system of meaning. As neurons communicate, an association begins to form between them (much like a relationship forms between 2 people when they talk to each other) The more they communicate, the stronger the association gets, until it becomes virtually automatic and instantaneous (much like how we build relationships) These neutral conversations are not independent ---- imagine how confusing that would be.
