Why Anarcho-Capitalism Is a Canard and Its Implications for Atheism

An implicit point to the OP is there is no alternative to private property given human nature - fear - and apparent scarcity of resources - and that private property forms the basis of every other system out there, with some inclusions from religion, thus all social systems are doomed to fail, some slower, some quite a bit faster.

No alternative, that is, except for the social order predicated upon self-governance by the golden rule and preached by Jesus.
