Here's one for you. When you say "we" or "our" in the context of people that you think of being in your 'in-group', what is the largest scope of your "we". Is it:
Your immediate family (in the same house)
Your extended family (connected by blood)
The city or town in which you live (Sheffield)
Your county (Yorkshire - or even South Yorkshire)
Your party of the country (The North)
Your country (UK - maybe England)
Your ethnic group (Anglo-saxon, Black, Asian etc)
Your religion (Catholic, protestant; Christian, Shia, Sunni; Muslim etc)
The continent you are a part of (Europe)
Your species (Homo Sapiens)
All living things!
I'd like to say homo sapiens and I sometimes do, but I guess really I consider myself to be a European...
