re: #108 SidewaysQuark

Some cultures, with all their flaws, have definitively proven themselves superior to others in these regards.

So you want to take the culture of ‘live and let live’ and force it on other people.

How do you go about ‘aggressively Westernizing’ a group of people selected by faith? Wouldn’t that contradict the very values you want people to accept?

Not at all. I would simply stop placing things like “religion” and “culture” on a pedestal as subjects that are off-limits to derision and criticism. Let their benefits stand on their own if they’re so wonderful.

You subject religion and culture to derision while at the same time telling me it’s off limits to derision. How does that work?
