I don't know if it's a matter of keeping one thing and discarding another. If you recall the Disraeli quote he talks about change being inevitable but a <i>difference</i> to manners, customs, etc. The way I understand that is to mean that we have to approach change with caution and not be so quick to assume that we always know more than the people that came before us. Back to global warming; liberals put such unflinching faith in science and 'reason' that they have really accelerated the global warming stuff beyond the science. That's the danger of only looking forward.
