Strictly speaking, society is merely a by-stander. The biological imperative to reproduce does produce a new generation of individuals who can contribute to society, but human beings, and the the hominids who were our ancestors, were reproducing long before there was any society to take an interest.

John Doe has some silly ideas, but the idea that society has a particular interest in pair-bonding is particularly silly.

Society also needs the sun to shine, and plants to photosynthesise, and some religious nutters think that it is a good idea to pray to their god to ask him to keep the sun going, but we can probably risk them skipping those prayers for a day or two.
