See how pointless it was to break my post into two statements and then respond the same way to both? Even if it's two paragraphs, I articulate one idea. Breaking a single idea into multiple ones is a fallacy. It twists the argument into something that was not intended by the speaker.
Anyways, for the United States the bulk of DNA is the Constitution and the Protestant Church. Though its more accurate to say the DNA is the gestalt of every individual's laws and traditions within the US, these are what conservatives tend to hold valuable so this is the homogeneous image it presents to the world. In nations like China, the philosophy is very different and religion can be considered a liberal endeavor as the nationalist, conservative base has adopted a very secular structure and religious ideas are becoming foreign to the central entity.
Watch some Naruto, it may help you learn some of this. Basically there is a philosophy within every culture. This philosophy is unique to their culture and even more unique to the families within the culture and most unique to the individuals of the family. Nonetheless, this is essentially something greater than ourselves. Religions can be looked at in the same format. They are a collection of laws and traditions that a loyal base protects and spreads to others. This type of self-sustainability is life, no question about it. It is simply life on a bigger scale than the individual or genetics.
