More than 20 tribal societies accept the principle that a child could, and ideally ought to, have more than one father,

And how many think that having the neighbors over for dinner is a good idea too?

How many think that when twins are born that the second should be kill because they have no soul?

People are weird.

You can find many examples of bizarre behavior in "tribal" societies. That's one of the main reasons they are still tribal. After all, if they had invented monogamy, capital accumulation and filial inheritance, they wouldn't be tribal societies - they'd be civilizations.
