Do we really have to have the same endless, boring, dead-end argument about the climbing of ancient hills on this forum?
Yes, in the same way that we have to bang on about the disrespect shown to our fellow human beings – whether to women in some parts of the world, child abuse everywhere, the pollution/destruction of our planet or the mindless disrespect to ancient sites. Of course we have to keep banging on about these things until the message gets through that they are totally,
totally unacceptable. I’m surprised you even ask the question.
Only a few days ago Chance posted a pic of some dickhead standing on Avebury’s Diamond Stone while someone else took his photograph. A few years ago scubi told some German visitors to stop climbing another of the Avebury stones. Quite a lot of us here have done the same in the hope that people will see that what they’re doing is unacceptable and attitudes, consequently, will change.
And that’s the point. Far from the arguments being ‘endless, boring or a dead-end’ they keep these issues on the front page rather than letting them slip off into oblivion.
