"Government" is just coercion, robbery and murder that some people carry out in the name of others.
If Hebrews had been like tea-baggers, they would hated the idea of following a leader, Moses, to the promised land.
Instead would just spread in all directions as each individual would have had it.
Because it's a fact that individuals always know better than the government.

The other direction was Libya, they might as well have followed Charlton Heston, than Qaddafi :-)

I hope you do realize, at the time of Moses, the "government" was the Pharoah. Moses was the individual who led a bunch of individuals in a different direction from where the Pharoah wanted to enslave them.

I was talking about "everything but" girls, i.e. they want to keep their technical virginity. Some people may call them "everything butt."

Nope, Moses was the leader (and so "government") of the Hebrews the minute they fled Egypt.
Since you are against any central leadership, you should relate to that.

Ok, it's been said before but I'll say it again.
I see myself as a creative and intelligent person who, if born rich, would be a Renaissance man doing my own research, engaging in numerous activities.
Thus, my goal in life is to become independently wealthy and do the above.
Now, since many of my pals have had children and so forth, I'm absolutely astonished at how lame and boring these kids are. At best, they parrot TV shows and break toys, to the best of their abilities. In contrast, when I was a kid, I was dreaming of writing screenplays, inventing a lightsaber, and so forth.
Yes, my parents squashed my dreams and made me think of engineering, accounting, and so on but at least when I got started, I had bigger dreams.
But now, I've come to accept these facts. Yes, for the most part, children are lame and at best, one can hope that they don't get in trouble with the law or sleep in your basement for life. Those parents, whose kids are the next Alexander Hamilton or Buckminster Fuller, are the fortunate ones.
With that said, I have no incentive nor motivation to have my own. When I'm an old man, I'll be like Frank Lloyd Wright, constantly writing down ideas and working on things of interest without having a lifelong kid/adult sleeping near my study spaces.
