Whoops. Left a bit of your text on the end of that last post, sorry! My comments ended at "If truths were objective and self-evident, we'd always agree on everything!"


Not at all, it's usually self interests and self delusions that cause 'disagreements'. Your starting to sound like Bill O'Reilly & co. on Fox News, when someone states a verifiable fact they retort 'well that's your opinion' before moving on to something else.

There's property you own, property you dont and property you share, you modify your behaviour accordingly. It seems people want to treat ancient sites like their own personal property, it just is not. It's shared and should be respected in this way, no personal stamps of ownership or tokens of your visit unless there's a very good reason. I haven't heard a good reason yet why others should leave visual/material pollution that was not there before they arrived.
