Well, the whole argument is mood, anyway: I know no-one who would sincerely
like to have society, laws, technique or whatever from 200 or more years ago
back today. Anyone volunteering for a medical treatment of that time? Anyone
for transportation? Housing? Food? Schools? Churches? Media? Clothes? Electoral
laws? Criminal laws? Kings and Queens?
Most people of today will refuse next to anything from that time. So why on
Earth should one declare some rather arbitrarily chosen laws of that time to be
some kind of holy cow that cannot be adapted to present time, and instead
insist on applying them to our world, no matter how ill-suited they are today?

Gerrit
