...there are only two theories of title to property in
land: that title is from labor or from violence.
----------------------------------

Wait a minute, the Adam and Eve story is perfectly
applicable to the world that modern man emerged into
at the end of the last Ice Age--a world of plenty for
everyone.  One could merely stake out a farm in the
Nile or Tigris valleys, and begin farming it, without
taking anything from anybody.

So that makes a third theory, doesn't it?
