1) An anarchistic majority? Please provide some evidence to back that up.
2) Does the passing of time lessen the severity? in a 100yrs time would you look back and say 'oh Fred & Rose, bless them' ?
Its funny really that some people who seem to think that this is somehow acceptable because 'thats just the way it was' are the first to decry other cultures practices that they don't agree with.
