Why are you equating strength with coercion? That's high-key gross. And, when have I ever said I would "stay atomized?" We are supposed to help our neighbors. I intend to do that, and hope that they will help me in my time of need. You are conflating things to conform to your twisted idea of how a society should be run, which is NOT HOW GOD WANTS HUMANS TO LIVE. That's pretty implicit and explicit through the entire Bible. Come on, Stella. Use your brain. Think about this. Where in Jesus' life does he condone anything you are proposing?

I am using my brain. I'm not the one suffering from a lack or imagination, here. You cannot help your neighbors against any group that has banded together unless you _also_ band together. And if you band together, then you need to move in a coordinated fashion. Which leads to leadership and rules, over this use of violence, within your defined area of protection, which leads to governance.
