ascate said:yes, your point of view is interesting and can be discussed, but what it is all about is simpler :
Keep in today's world what was yesterday's world. Just to remeber it as an example to follow... or not to follow.
Ancestors have been there before us ( ho ? Yes ? lol ! ) and "their light is behind us to light up the way ahead of us, today"

you seem rather pessimistic, no ? Or am I wrong ?
rules are made to be broken. sometimes it's good and open the door to progress, some other times it's bad. but it can also bring progress.
whatever, UNESCO WCH is here to preserve, not to judge. That will be done by mankind, in the long run.
