d) Since a child is under the age of consent and cannot contract, then a child follows the

allegiance of the parents.

affecting nationality, within territory controlled by the society.

i) A society can rule how the dependencies of the marital relationship and child custody affectthe derivative citizenship of the family.

j) A child conceived by artificial insemination or born by surrogacy is born out of wedlock.

k) Territory is a place of birth, not a nationality, unless a society so chooses, .

l) Since man's laws control nationality and matrimony, then man's laws can determine how

conception and matrimony controls nationality.

m) Since aliens are visitors to a society, then the children born of aliens, while present in the

territory of a society, do not become members of the society, but are members of their

parent's society.

n) If a society accepts an alien as a resident of the society and the alien has allegiance to the

society, then society may accept the alien's children as citizens, but not as natural born.o) Since invaders are un-welcomed by a society, then the children born of invaders, while

present in the territory of a society, do not become members of the invaded society, but are

members of the invader's society.

p) Since US natural born citizenship is derived by blood, and naturalization is derived by

man's laws, then concluding that life is not lost by the shedding of law, but naturalization is

lost by the shedding of law; and while life is lost by the shedding of blood, therefore a

natural born citizen survives without the naturalization laws of man.
