A person outside of society is a god, or a beast?

It was in the urban environment that humanity first rose to intellectual life and
acquired those features that most of all distinguish it from animals. But in our day
people will be able to live without solitude in society?

Human - is a social animal. Aristotle said something like this, he meant that a person
living outside of society cannot in any way be called a person. Without society, the
individual becomes uncontrollable, free to live according to his own laws, that is, to
be God. But such an existence has a fine line with the life of an animal, which also
does not know the rules and laws. We know that morality is a form consisting of a
system of values. Law is a universally binding rule of conduct. Having analyzed both
definitions, we can conclude that both morality and law regulate social behavior and
relations, and they emerged precisely in society as a necessity.

Examples can also be found in the literature. For example, the hero of the legend
Larra, who chose to live separately from society in his kingdom. He can only be
called God because he was originally raised in the company of his mother, who
instilled in him at least primitive knowledge and language. But people who got into
isolation in childhood really become animals. In history, the so-called Mowgli
children are known, for example, one Cambodian girl disappeared in the jungle for as
long as 18 years. When she was discovered, it became clear that the girl had no idea
about the rules of conduct, not to mention morality or law. As a result, the girl was
never able to adapt to society and again fled to the jungle, where she was much more
comfortable.

In conclusion, the quantity, quality, and complexity of your relationships with others
defines your personality and shapes your life. Human is an indispensable part of
society, and always needs both support and biological contact with others.
