The Noblest Purpose for Creating a Just Human Society

Why all this talk about society, state, and social order?

A state for its own sake?

A state as object of worship (idol)?

A state as master over individuals?

A state as means of attainment of material wealth and vainglory for an elite?

Or, a state that seeks to be shaped around the following question:

What is the noblest purpose for forming a just human society?

Is it not to facilitate the full development of the individual according to the individual's unique divine purpose, so that human creative and spiritual potential can flourish?
