Who had proper title to Eden? :)
Clouded Title:
The history of religious crusades and ethnic cleansing of indigenous peoples by invaders claiming the right to appropriate other peoples property based on Papal dispensations, biblical manipulations, or ancient religious connections to other peoples territories.That's a fascinating topic, with deep implications.
Law of the Jungle <==> Law of Bungled Title? <==> Law of Semantics?
Before getting lost in the maze of implications, let's jump straight to the conclusion.
The only higher law is the Law of Recombination, given that the highest return is always the return on coordination. Anyone settling for ownership & theft is settling for far, far less than they could be part of. Ben Franklin recognized this, in his famous "table talk" to the 1st Constitutional Congress.
We should stick with our original rallying cry. "We came, we saw, we made a more perfect union." That focus on coordination is what produced the greatest wealth in human history. Anything less is embarrassingly stupid. Progress always follows Open Recruitment and careful selection of optimal recombinations.
ps: Multiple CopyWrong lawsuits are in process in the Court of Reality, claiming that Eden was a plagiarized idea. Is nothing really sacred among crooks?
