Mating is purely an act of self-perpetuation associated with varying degrees of self-gratification; marriage, '''home''' building, is largely a matter of self-maintenance, and it implies the evolution of [[society]]. Society itself is the aggregated [[structure]] of family units. [[Individual]]s are very temporary as [[planetary]] factors--only families are continuing agencies in social evolution. The family is the [[channel]] through which the river of culture and [[knowledge]] flows from one generation to another.[http://urantia.org/cgi-bin/webglimpse/mfs/usr/local/www/data/papers?link=http://mercy.urantia.org/papers/paper84.html&file=/usr/local/www/data/papers/paper84.html&line=28#mfs]
