You think society in the future would find something we see as offensive/disgusting/immoral today as acceptable or encouraged to embrace?
One example, gay/lesbian was very frowned upon in the past, but today everyone not on the accepting side is considered weird at the very least With this precedent in mind, something everyone finds offensive or disgusting will not be such in the near future Thoughts? Or people will flay "you need to catch up with the times" banner? Do your values or standards change overtime, in an almost contradictory way? --- your right ... Copied to Clipboard!

I just personally find pretty hilarious what the americans on this board find morally reprehensible and what they find ok.

That's actually not the case in the majority of the planet's nations. If you were just talking about some place like the US, then you would be correct. Gay acceptance is currently on the rise there. --- Bite me like one of your French rolls. http://www.imageupload.co.uk/images/2017/06/05/flcnpawn.png http://www.imageupload.co.uk/images/2017/06/05/84543589.gif ...

It's almost like different people have opinions and post on this board. I detest real life violence and don't wish death on people. You should stop trying to generalize a huge group of people in the future. --- -The Admin ... Copied to Clipboard!

It goes without saying that within a majority there are exceptions.
