@St_Rev and the hope that you will persist as a worshipped ancestor? -
@sarahdoingthing Or at least not be scorned. Give the past a strong presence in the present, so people can see themselves persisting. -
@St_Rev Identifying with a persisting institution of any kind may be enough - hence legacies to colleges, charitable/social societies... -

@sarahdoingthing Yep. Ancestor worship requires/drives reproduction.
