Traditional values
I just read an article where the Governor of Texas was glorifying the Boy Scouts as a source of traditional values.
The bible has some of those traditional values also.
Where do we draw the line on tradition and progress?
Should progress be halted for tradition? If you said yes, then you are a deterrent to progress.
Change will happen, people change and times change.
Holding on to some traditions is nonproductive.
If you look at the tradition of the bible you’ll notice divorce is not allowed. Seems that tradition was dropped!
You can also find a tradition of slavery in the bible. Seems that tradition was dropped.
I guess those two traditional values were no longer considered viable. I wonder who makes these decisions of viability? Because they’ve been laying down on the job!
Obviously tradition can be counter productive or the two traditions mentioned above would still be in place.
Heck, even my mother doesn’t make her traditional dishes the same way she did just 30 years ago.
