70:3.7 The [[ceremony]] of [[adoption]] consisted in drinking each other's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood blood]. In some [[groups]] saliva was exchanged in the place of blood drinking, this being the ancient [[origin]] of the [[practice]] of [[social]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kissing kissing]. And all [[ceremonies]] of [[association]], whether [[marriage]] or [[adoption]], were always terminated by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feasts feasting].

70:3.8 In later times, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood blood] diluted with red wine was used, and [[eventually]] wine alone was drunk to seal the [[adoption]] [[ceremony]], which was signified in the [[touching]] of the wine cups and consummated by the swallowing of the beverage. The [[Hebrews]] employed a [[modified]] form of this [[adoption]] [[ceremony]]. Their [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab Arab] [[ancestors]] made use of the [[oath]] taken while the hand of the [[candidate]] rested upon the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phallus generative organ] of the [[tribal]] [[native]]. The [[Hebrews]] treated adopted aliens kindly and fraternally. "The stranger that dwells with you shall be as one born among you, and you shall love him as yourself."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Leviticus#Chapter_.19]

70:3.9 " Guest [[friendship]] " was a [[relation]] of temporary [[hospitality]]. When visiting guests departed, a dish would be broken in half, one piece being given the departing [[friend]] so that it would serve as a suitable introduction for a third party who might arrive on a later visit. It was customary for guests to pay their way by telling [[Narrative|tales]] of their [[travels]] and [[adventures]]. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storytelling storytellers] of olden times became so popular that the [[mores]] eventually forbade their [[functioning]] during either the [[hunting]] or [[harvest]] [[seasons]].

70:3.11 The earliest [[peace]] missions consisted of [[delegations]] of men bringing their choice [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgins maidens] for the [[sex]] [[gratification]] of their onetime enemies, the sex appetite being utilized in combating the [[war]] urge. The [[tribe]] so honored would pay a return visit, with its offering of maidens; whereupon [[peace]] would be firmly [[established]]. And soon intermarriages between the [[families]] of the chiefs were [[sanction]]ed.
