"I saw to what extent the people among whom I lived could be trusted as good neighbors and friends; that their friendship was for summer weather only; that they did not greatly propose to do right; that they were a distinct race from me by their prejudices and superstitions."

One interesting anthropological theory I read recently hinged on the near-universality of puberty rituals- often painful and apparently pointless- in ancient cultures, and speculated that they may actually have resulted in powerful selective pressure on human populations. For those tribes, to be allowed to reproduce, members first had to demonstrate willingness to go through pain to achieve later gratification... submit to authority without question... do both of those in the name of membership in society. Those who wouldn't or couldn't didn't breed or didn't stay.
It's at a level no more sophisticated than interesting speculation, but I can also speculate that perhaps the drudgery, silliness, and allegiance to a not-very-worthy authority is the modern unanesthetized circumcision...
Er, the drudgery, silliness, and allegiance of modern political partisanship. Missing some words there...
