"By themselves"? Did locks invent themselves?
As usual, you bring nothing to this discussion for the simple reason you cannot refute the Law of Distrust since this universal principle pervades all societies in all nations.
And by the way, if you think for a moment that you can open up a bank account without proving who you are, what would that make you?
Or go to doctor or dentist for the first time without I.D. and see how far that gets you?
Or try to get a business license without I.D.
Or try to get a marriage license without I.D.
Or when the IRS requires that your furnish proof of something, try telling them the burden of proof lies with them.
The Law of Distrust utterly destroys the stupid, feel good, self-aggrandizing theory that says that all men are basically good because if the world truly believed that we wouldn't have to put locks on our valuables, or have to prove who we are, or have to have passwords, or have to have background checks, or require proof of any our professional or scholastic credentials, or nations have to arm themselves to protect themselves against untrustworthy nations etc., etc., etc. That ignorant theory flies in the face of reality as we all know it.
But go head, bite off your snout to spite your face. Go choke on it, denier of reality!
