I completely agree that it was an attack on traditions and why we keep these traditions going. But I can aslo say that thought there might seem to be a lot of traditions that might seem silly to us have a true basis to people. If I can bring up obsessive compulsive disorder, it's the same principle that things someone does over and over again seems so stupid to other people but for the person doing they fear that something bad will happen if they don't do it. Like my completely irrational fear that if I don't touch the alarm as I walk down the hall and make sure it's flat against the wall we're going to get broken in to or the house is gonna catch on fire. >.>
