Correct answer is: CULTURE
Its all around us. It manifests inside of us and even if its something that creates physical manifestation its still the culture that is the whole engine behind the design of what is and whats to become.
I had a pleasent little discussion with my secondary boss. We had a deligation of Russians visiting us yeasterday from a "big russian online gaming company" (hush hush-company) and we speculated before they arrived who they where. We slid over to talk about gaming companies and the culture that they actually are a big part of creating. My secondary boss is a marketing manager and is highly skilled in "target audiance" so we discussed just that. In the gaming world the youth is ofc the biggest target and how well are we adapted to the youth cultures?
Every culture has its own language. When you encounter a fully devolped cultural language you find it strange and foreign even it came from your own language. Now ppl say "lol", "rofl" and ZOMGod" in speech and get a little smile each time they look at the clock and its 13:37.
The cultures carries new looks which penetrates all ages and interests. We got emo's, posh, bombos, divas and goth's... Even if its nothing new its still VERY new and very unique. The youth of today HAS created a culture and its very living.
Do not fight culture. You will just justify it.

2. one thing you do will have to explain "Do not fight culture. You will just justify it." i dont really get this part, never been mentioned in sociology either, can you give an example or something? It's hard and mostly pointless to fight a culture but i can't see how it justify's it?

See it as the existance of "Satanism" as religion and culture are close related in many aspects. The existance of Satanism as active force is to fight Christianity and oppose it. But to fight Christianity you are defining it and thus justifying its existance. You dont fight what you do not accept is relevant to your culture/existance.

doing what you described would give those 3 people a cause not a culture imo. If you would instead follow them, help them spread, agree with their ideas, that would be the start of a culture. A culture can be defined as either something geografical or social. The social definition points to common ideas, goals, morale cod, language etc. of a group of people, most usually with the same etnical background, i can't see how refusing a culture would justify it from that point of view, i really see it more as admitting the cultures existence.
America are opposing Iraqian culture, are they justifying it? They use war on terrorism as a tool to justify their own actions, i can't see how their war on terrorism justify's Iraqian culture, just an example.

And we are playing with words. Justifying or admitting. "Justifying to themselves" would perhaps make you digest this better? :)
