[quote=FlyerInHi]njtosd, some people believe that the context of past times apply and they use that to justify their heroes. And some people still use old historical texts to justify present behavior.

However, I believe we need to evolve with the times and reject anachronistic ideas. Judge people on how they address things in the present, by our own standards.[/quote]

Again I say, oh please. This quote may have gotten you a B on your middle school civics essay, but it is ridiculous in the present context.

and PS: Please tell me in what historical context it was appropriate to let a young girl drown in order to avoid exposing your extramarital affairs?
