Harriet,

I am afraid you totally misunderstood what I said!

I did not say at all that multiple-cause theories would sweep all causes into
one basket callied "human inclination." I complained that that is what
single-cause theories do.

I was arguing that the very fact that most societies had to *establish* legal
or spirtual guidelines against incenst disproves the idea that there is one
humanity-wide leaning against incest.
