The way we live today and the activities we undertake, if left unchanged, will form the culture and tradition of forthcoming generations. Likewise, parts of the culture we live in today were the regular daily activities of bygone generations. But should we accept the culture handed down to us by our forebears unquestioningly? Why must we define ourselves, and thus our lifestyle, by the artifact from the past over which we had no choice and influence? What criteria should we use in deciding which elements from the past are worthy of preserving and respectable and which should be consigned to the dustbin of history? |

Culture should be dynamic. The determinant for change being the common good. |
