5.4 Preservation of Progeny
The preservation of progeny involves the protection of offspring and lineage. This is very important
in creating a healthy, productive and civilised society. Progeny must be protected in order to preserve
the social system of the society.
If progeny is not protected from transgressions against the religion and order of nature such as
adultery, sodomy, lesbianism, homosexuality and bisexuality, etc., the social structure will collapse
and eventually the purity of lineage will be corrupted leading to the destruction of the dignity of
religion, nation and country.
