Such communities are apparently no more than the arithmetic sum of all the individuals who are present within the geographic area. There is apparently nothing which is essentially communal. Healthy individuals are born in and raised by communities. Unhealthy individuals are often born in isolation and grow up in isolation; alienated from healthy communities. Such unhealthy individuals are not familiar with true communities and cannot in isolation/alienation conceive true communities nor recognize their lack of a true community. In a true community there are healthy traditions, patterns of communication and rituals which transcend individualistic concerns, preoccupations and technologies. Such healthy traditions, patterns of communication and rituals are not merely means to the fulfillment of individualistic goals, ideals, values, principles and desires. A mere collection of individuals in a geographic area does not make a community. Such a collected group of individuals will need to intentionally cooperate to conceive a true community which transcends their individualistic concerns, preoccupations and technologies.
