horrible question. change can be good or bad. Wanna have a world where the workers get taxed to hell, trannys running around, sharia law every where then obviously change is bad. But good change would be ending slavery. Its really a balance but i take tradition anyday
@yarva: change for the sake of change is not only stupid but dangerous

Of course. But people don't look to change things just for the sake of change. They look to change traditions that are backwards and stupid. People cling to traditions without knowing why. People don't cling to change just to change. Change is brought from necessity.

Oh hell yes, some people most certainly do. I firsthand know people that have gone out of their way to change things in their lives for the sake of changing things in their lives. But you can't isolate and categorize people in why they do things in such a singular way as you suggest. Some people are fully aware of their traditions and take pride in them, including the reasons why they carry on in them. Some people are traditionalists because of habit, and that's it. Some people change due to what becomes popular in their culture or society, and for no other reason than that. Some people change because they can't keep on going if they don't.
There's tons of reasons why someone may keep a tradition or change, and everyone's got their own reasons.

It's time to stop vilifying contrasting philosophies.

Change without question...
without change no technological advances, or medical advances.
Racism would still be rife, segregation (still happens but at least slavery is abolished),
if i was lying in a wreck with broken legs, arm half torn off and brain injuries i would take Modern advance medicine than traditional treatment EVERYTIME.

Change can be about returning to even older ways. Change is not always "progressive" or "necessary".
Heh.

How about both? They don't have to conflict at all.
