Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Social and cultural context is a bad excuse.

I wouldnt aprove of letting Jivaro Indians of hunting heads or the inhabitants of northern India burn widows.

Moral is is subjective and determined through reason and thought.

Not through culture.

By agreeing to disagree with an *identical argument* to your own...

I really don't have to fill that in, it speaks for itself Sleepy

Maybe branding everybody wasn't very clever. I admit there can be exceptions, but for me personally it is a disgusting idea. I know one couple that proves me wrong stereotyping, but I've also seen people taking advantage of very young girls.

It's just that the thought of it gives me the same creeps as thinking of having sex with my mother.

I've seen young women take advantage of rich older men plenty often. Honestly... what changes between a 14 year old using an older person to get rich and an 18 year old doing the same?

Genuinely... I'm not seeing any difference here. I think a lot of things are disgusting, but I tolerate them if it isn't explicitly clear that someone is being greatly harmed by whatever their behavior is Smile

That Biblical creation account must make you awfully squeamish, then.

It's moral in their culture, so you don't like it... so what?
