I read an awful lot of negative ajectives in this article. Where is the tolerance and appreciation for multicultural diversity? I mean, who are we, after all, to judge much older nations and their cultural practices. For an upstart nation only a few hundred years old, we certainly could learn a lot from the elder wisdom of a people living much closer to our mother the earth than we do. The problem with the European Judeo-Christian experience is that it critically judges the entire world from its own perspective rather than learning to accept the totality of human experience as a rich resource to respect and learn from.

ROFLMFAO!
You forgot to point out that all cultures are relatively equal. Some of these people are so judgemental, it could tear your heart out.
