Constitutions and moral truths need to rest on real natural rights according to real human nature. From there we can derive the set of preferences with which to start. Natural law, when including the biological origin of social behavior, tells us that we have a biology determined human nature. Our real freedom is limited by various determined choices, but we have the flexibility to be mistaken about who we are and what we can do and be.
The best and most recent sociobiological knowledge has been telling us that human nature, affirmed throughout human history, has been, and continues to be basically, kin-centered, gender defined, age-grading, heterosexual marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, and religious-making, among other things, with group-selection as the primary unit of selection. This is basic human nature.
If real kin and ethnic-centered human nature was allowed to be what it is, it would naturally lead to ethnostates, and finally, if we are wise, to an ethnopluralism of ethnostates for all groups, black, white, brown, yellow, or red, with each ethnostate protected from marauding imperialists, global businesses, supremacists, Marxists, etc., and defended by a defensive federalism. An ethnopluralism of ethnostates could be established legally in the United States with our constitutional separation of powers and states.
Admitting
this
hidden truth about human nature and natural law will be very
difficult because it admits ethnocentrism which is still widely
thought of as evil.
