69:0.1 [[Emotionally]], man [[transcends]] his [[animal]] [[ancestors]] in his [[ability]] to [[appreciate]] [[humor]], [[art]], and [[religion]]. [[Socially]], man [[exhibits]] his superiority in that he is a [[Tool|toolmaker]], a [[communicator]], and an [[institution]] builder.
69:0.2 When [[human being]]s long [[maintain]] [[social]] [[groups]], such [[aggregations]] always result in the [[creation]] of certain [[activity]] [[trends]] which culminate in [[institutionalization]]. Most of man's [[institutions]] have proved to be laborsaving while at the same time [[contributing]] something to the enhancement of [[group]] [[security]].
69:0.3 Civilized man takes great [[pride]] in the [[character]], [[stability]], and [[continuity]] of his [[established]] [[institutions]], but all [[human]] institutions are merely the accumulated [[mores]] of the [[past]] as they have been [[conserved]] by [[taboos]] and dignified by [[religion]]. Such [[legacies]] become [[traditions]], and traditions ultimately [[metamorphose]] into [[conventions]].
