Actually what I said was "Stop trying to attach the rules of YOUR culture to everyone else in the world/universe." I said nothing about "dictating". Thats YOUR modus operendi. Not mine. What I said was meant to be viewed as an internal suggestion and not a warning against overt action. Its a suggestion on how to think so as to avoid these kinds of incidents. As long as you assume everyone should live and think exactly like you then you are bound to have conflict with other cultures. And here you see it.

As Gaffer said:

Quote:
Just because a person is capable of understanding:
1) another point of view and
2) that different cultures exist
does not mean that he agrees with them.
