    The greatest hope I see to conquer our insanity is the fact that there was a man like Jesus, and he didn’t own anything, so maybe you are right.Fire Ologist

    Ownership seems to occur with certain advents and inventions throughout early history. This includes the invention of weaponry and the science of agriculture. Those with weapons were able to claim objects from those without. And the early scientists who developed agriculture and cattle raising were able to claim ownership of that land and sell its yield for further advancement in a hierarchy.

    There would probably always exist some sentiment of favoring the smarter and stronger, but if this is a society of civilized people that is recovering from something like a nuclear war, then I think it could be possible.
