The thing I like about RPing as Minmatar is that they are among the most diverse people in New Eden. The Tribes were already vastly different before leaving Matar and now they are scattered across the universe and split into clans that are split into family. So this gives you a nearly clean canvas to work with to develop your character and the background: Their culture, their religion, their way of thinking, their view on the world etc etc. So as previous mentioned there is no right way to be minmatar. Minmatar spirituality is abit like the Hindu religion imo. There are countless of gods/spirits and some clans/tribes values some of them higher than other. There is no correct answer since it all depends on your background.
I RP Miz as being born in the Federation and she is from a clan that migrated there long ago. So she is vastly different from Minmatars who grew up in the Republic and she haven't been influenced much by the slavery and rebellion. Likewise the culture she grew up in have been to a larger degree been influenced by Gallente culture and her Clan's religion has also developed differently. So if she was to talk IC with some of the other Vherokior characters in this thread she would find that there are many differences between them, but also similarities that can bond them together.
Also as previously mentioned I enjoy the tribal aspect of it. It gives a nice touch you can add to your character. Despite being a Capsuleer and a Doctor, Miz is still very religious and consider it an important part of her life. Likewise she values her family and her clan highly. And she feels it is important to stay in touch with nature and achieve inner balance. Her greatest fear is to lose touch with her humanity and become a heartless killer.
So if you want to carve your own little corner of the universe, but with a tribal twist, the Minmatar would be a excellent choice. Although there have been much focus on the slavery part, it is up to you how much you want to include it for your character. However there are definitely also advantages of picking the other Factions (Like among the Amarr RP community where they have the Amarr God to really connect them), but I am not the right person to talk about that and I hope some other people can fill in on that so you pick something you are satisfied with.
