Daniel DeWyngaert - Turner Communitas

This Blog is about an idea that came up from the book required to be read for class Image and Pilgrimage in Christian Culture. This idea is called Communitas. The very idea is that a group can form while many people are traveling towards same or similar goals. This group formation would be considered completely informal, and while in the group every member would be considered as an equal to one another. This is usually only successful in a small amount of time. This is because human nature is usually to have leaders and followers. With communitas there can only be equality. I found this topic interesting and thought provoking. The idea of random strangers just meeting up and going along with each other is an amazing thing I believe. No matter for how short of a time
