Also: There is some bias in Germanic Tribes (ALl european post-indo-european (italic, germanic, Scandinavian, balto-slavic) tribes, toward not necessarily universalism, but tolerance toward others, because they were marginally indifferent. As far as I know the proto germanic term for others is ‘brothers’, not ‘aliens’. Whereas the middle east, constantly the subject of tribal competition and waves of conquering tribes from all directions, DID produce the concept of ‘others’.
