It's human nature. It's in our God given existence to be a SOCIAL BEING.
In fact, there are two higher level groupings that have considerable bearing on how society and culture are mediated among men. One group consists of the women and children. They gather. They need and maintain permanent campsites. Another group is the men's hunting band. They hunt. They protect the women, children and the elderly. They need the trail to go to the game.
In the old days when life was very difficult the men would go on the hunt all winter and the women and children would stay behind and live on the stored crops and meat. In the Spring when the men's hunting party returned, and someone was missing, they would remarry with all new wives.
The Iriquois were doing this right down to the 1600s which is why we know we were doing this.
The foundational creation myth of the Sa'ami, the ancestors of tens of millions of Americans, says that in the Spring a young man comes to stay with Herb Woman and she becomes his wife, and he her husband. In the Fall he returns to the herd ~ the reindeer ~ and runs in the ice and snow away from the wolves.
I'm pretty sure that's the truth because that's pretty much the way life occurred for most Sa'ami and all Skolt Sa'ami for thousands of years.
It was the Way they lived and the Way they survived in the Great Ice Age at the foot of the glaciers.
As I said, it's built in ~ and as men or women we have rights that extend beyond those which may be exercised by a single individual.
America stands alone as an experiment in individual rights.
Contrasting against the dark tide of collectivist history.
You are confusing human Rights with collectivist mysticism.
I don’t want the Supreme Court looking at your Viking Herb Woman myths or whatever.
All they need to know is Common Law, the Declaration, and the Constitution.
Leave the foreign precedents back in the miserable past, far away from our glorious, individual-freedom based Republic!
