Traditions, good or bad?

Posted: April 16, 2011 in Thoughts

Last day I was reading on internet that in China they have banned the viewing of movies about time travel, because they are “against their traditions“.

Actually sounds little bit strange for me, how a movie that talk about time travel can be against the traditions?

Apparently China have banned all kinds of story lines that contain elements of “fantasy, time travel, mythical or mythological stories, feudal superstition, fatalism, reincarnation, ambiguous moral lessons, or lack of ‘positive thinking'” only because they can be “against” their tradition.

All of us knows that traditions are part of our history, our family, our culture, but can tradition “close” the mentality of the people in 2011?

I think that traditions are one of the best thing that we have for remember a special part of our culture, and is good to keep them, but don’t close ourself in the past, just keep this culture that is in our world from years or centuries, and continue to grow our mind, and expand our knowledge opening our view wide to the world and over.
