in progress....
Anthropologie is unique in several ways in that it is more of a philosophy than a religion.
Anthropologie relies on something that many religions follow anyway. We are stronger as one whole (all of us together) than as each of us. Therefore, we naturally strive to add synthopy to our existence because it makes us stronger, better people, and more comfortable as a people, together.
Anthropologie assumes that the world can be seen through an endless centerless figurative web that connects all people, animals, and things. Each person/animal/thing is located on an intersection where the strands of the web meet.
When one person somehow alters this person's spot on the web, everyone and everything around him or her is also affected to an extent as if there is an invisible connection... a push or pull throughout the figurative web.
Furthermore, each person is responsible for their actions one hundred percent. Another words, if you and twenty other people do something bad, each person is completely responsible and not 1/20th of 100 percent.
Yet, the opposite is true, too. If you are involved in something positive involving 20 people, you are just as much as an importance to the outcome. This doesn't mean that you created the theory of relativity with Einstein because you made his coffee one day, but without you doing that, he may have had a different day (or possibly even altering years throughout the web of time, which is another, and more complex thing I won't talk about here, but down below), and it may have never happened.
This has greater reverberation than you may think. If you see someone walking down the street, and they drop a dollar, picking up the dollar and giving it to them may alter their day (and everyone near them on the figurative web) in a way that you may not know. Everything that everyone does for everyone suddenly has new meaning. Everything is connected in a unique way.
Which leads to the next part. When someone, say Einstein, for example, creates the theory of relativity, everyone taking part, directly, or indirectly, is somehow affecting what he did. The farther along the web from him you are, the less you affect him. But the closer you are, the more you affect him. Millions of people can be credited for the theory of relativity... maybe not like Einstein, but someone had to make his coffee.
Everyone, in some way, affects everyone else, even a small amount along this figurative web.
And we are all 100 percent responsible for each other in some way for this reason.
In the end, everything and all beings are heading down an anthropological path together to an end point in the future where reality as we know it is realized at that point.
In other words, the physical world may be heading toward entropy, but the psychological and anthropological connection of everyone is doing the opposite all the time, and is someday leading to a point when everything is in some way connected.
This is true because we are all on this figurative web together, and all the animals and people are automatically trying to find their place and movements on this web that works for everyone together, anthropologically.
Therefore, in millions of years, or however long it will take, something unknown is happening to all of us as syntropy happens through time.
Many people, especially writers, have thought about time and the effects of how it may be altered by one small change.
This may be true through Anthropologie, too. If one person is helped in some positive way as time passes, the future of the lives of their descendents may be positive in a way that reverberates on a web that is structured on a web throughout time instead of throughout 'things'. This is true, for example, not only with people, but with animals and objects such as elements, too.
Time can not be bargained with. It is finicky and exact. Whatever does happen will happen because that is the way things are.
Each person often asks him or herself, 'What is the meaning of life?, and 'What am I doing here?'
Through Anthropologie, I see that it is not only my (or every person's) life that affects the world in some great way that I should look for, but we all, all people, and animals, and things, all must live together. The outcome will not happen in one lifetime, but in hundreds of lifetimes. We connect more and more over time, as a settling anthropologically happens.
It's not 'what is the meaning of life as it pertains to me, and what am I doing here'. It is 'What is the meaning of life as it pertains to everyone around me, including me.' I am part of a larger, slowly growing and combining purpose that is unknown to me and will be unknown until, possibly, eons from now. That said, the world is slowly leading to that point through synthropy. It's not about 'me', but about how we are all connected, how I can better connect with others, and how I can become better person for it.
I live in the best way I know how in this manner (what does this mean to me?). What I do may not greatly effect the distant future in the world, but through the anthropologie of time, it might, along with every other person. Therefore, Anthropologie effects the world through synthopy (the opposite of what the physical world does, entropy).
Each person's strengths and weaknesses are different (and it is impossible for another person to know what a weakness or strength is in the original person... or even themself...-therefore, we must assume everything about a person may be a strength, even if we do not see or understand it).
Part of the reason for this is we can't piece together what we can't understand in the first place. But mostly this is true because the only way to know for sure would be to go centuries in the future to see the outcome, which is not possible. Therefore, everything and everyones actions can, and possibly should be seen as strengths, no matter how small or insignificant. What seems like a minor change at the moment, may blossom into a full scale possitive change in the future.
However, an obvious negative change may have catastrophic consequences in the future. 🔴 (--what about the effects on time in anthropologie?--)
It is important for me to be the best person I can be
The meaning of life is for this anthropological web over time to grow, as we, humanity (in our case) builds upon itself to eventually become something that is unknown at this point in time, but maybe in a thousand years, or ten thousand, or a hundred thousand years or more will turn into something special and unknown.
This web that we live in, if we don't care for it the best we can, as a person, and the best we know how as a group, it won't make us fail as humans. It will only take longer to get to that final anthropological point, whatever it will be.
We are therefore all responsible to help each other to live our best lives, but because none of us know another's strengths and weaknesses, we must help each other in a way that will allow each person to find their own path, and not to interfere in another person's life.
The world is physically going through a constant growing state of entropy.
However, all thinking things are constantly trying to find some form of peace and order within themselves, and in groups. They are searching for the opposite... syntropy. Furthermore, it may be millions of years before we fully find it and it can't be rushed. This is because the path to that point is too complex for any person to understand.

Honor my parents (This may not have an obvious anthropological significance, but I have always strongly believed it is important, and I believe on a mass level it has a place in Anthropologie)
Avoid obvious things because they put a wedge in social groups (like don't kill.... or other obvious concepts that hurt others and society)
Because I am the only person in this philosophy (and even if I wasn't) do things that connect me to groups in society so I can feel connected to the world. (here are examples)
A. Volunteering at places in groups such as Backpack beginnings or the soup kitchen.
B. Be part of a gardening club.
C. Join a club at Meetup.com that is popular such as Greenspielers
D. If there were others in this philosophy, I could invite them and this pholosophy becomes one way I connect to groups in society.
E. be part of a book club.
Once a week, take a walk outdoors in nature somewhere, so I can remember the inclusiveness the world has, not only, to me, and other people, but to each other. I think it is easy to forget this, and to make my life feel stale because of that missing connection. Even feeling the connection to bugs, plants, animals, and minerals may not obviously seem the same as with humans, but that doesn't matter. I still feel a connection with them, and at times, even more than with humans. So getting out and bonding with them is a good start to a stronger Anthropologie.
going on vacations or to stores doesn't count unless I frequent there over and over again, and therefore make new friends in groups. And even then, if i don't feel a connection with all the people (and not just one), that is only a friendship, which is nice and important, but not an anthropological connection.
It is easy to place yourself in a smaller group, and that is what many people do at times, but with Anthropologie, it is important to remind myself that everything is connected. Moreover, all people are connected, and we each can't put ourselves into one small group because we all have are strengths (that add to the long term end of Anthropologie) and we can't know what they are.
The point of this is to feel connected to the world. The anthropological web of Anthropologie can't be felt unless I do some things to bring out its reality.
