Debate over traditional culture

It is not tradition that can innovate. Innovating traditional culture itself is a false proposition.

The most important thing is that the traditional culture itself has been passed down for thousands of years and has a set of mature and systematic theories. If it can be changed, it has been changed for thousands of years! We can't think of a theory that our ancestors never thought of for thousands of years. Perhaps no one so arrogant dares to say that he is the first person in thousands of years.

If we want to talk about innovation, we can only talk about innovation in modern science and technology, network and mechanics. But modern technology itself is not a traditional culture! Traditional culture is ethics and philosophy. Who can say what has changed in this respect? Who dares to invent a new set of ethics by himself?
