Why for instance not judge the Roman invation of Britain with our current ethics ? I can't be bothered to go on but I will. You are the type of person that I assume atheisists to be. A total pedant picking over every one of my words to try to catch me out. I am sorry that you find my dislike of Monty Python offensive to you. Ironical that you think that world history should be measured in Judeao-Christian ethical terms. Go and watch 'Life of Brian' again for the 846th time (what did the Romans blah, blah, blah, peoples judea blah, blah the knights that go fucking nee!, this parrot! ) What a pedantic
????
How are my ethics Judeo-Christian?
Where do I mention Monthy Python?
And Yes! I look at the past as a cynic, who sees it as a dark place of mistakes and misjudgements from which we are to learn things.
For me, there is no glorious past, only a better future.
