They had a huge disclaimer at the begining of the movie that left me quite blur. But its noce to know the facts now.

And no comment on my awesome Muchi?<BR/><BR/>Rishi - On one level I belive India might still be clinging to the cast systen had they not been conquered. On the other hand she would also be far more wealthy and the monarchy would probably still be prominent.<BR/><BR/>Ro - Insightful. Mahalo. And tell that bastid Rishi to stop using such big words.

Human beings as a species have huge brains that feed off of change. I don't see it as selling out at all. Infact, cities such as Mohenjo Daro were at their time quite industrialized compared to other areas of human settlement.<BR/><BR/>Plus, I don't necessarily associate the west with being liberal. I know many westerners who are not "open" to certain concepts, such as arranged marriages. To me, that's not being liberal, but rather, conservative. Or the fact that in several Eastern cultures, people generally seem more open to both traditional and western healing methods, whereas here in the west, there's still a strong inaccurate stereotype towards eastern healing methods.<BR/><BR/>So, even in the east, liberal thinking is prominent but in a different regard. There's also a lot of conservativeness (is that a word?) which sort of balances it out. Same goes for the west.<BR/><BR/>So, to answer your question, I don't see it as selling out, but rather, embracing change.mogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07305847891265042660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12165478.post-1124718615748135552005-08-22T20:50:00.000+07:002005-08-22T20:50:00.000+07:00You've motivated me to see this movie avi.
