Which civilization are we talking about?
Wait! That reminds me of a quote from the movie “Grosse Pointe Blank” about an assassin that goes back to his home town for his tenth year High School Reunion. At one point, his girlfriend from high school finds out what he does for a living (e.g., kills people). This is their conversation:
Debi: How come you never learned that it [killing] was wrong? That there are certain things you do not do, you do not do in a civilized society?
Marty: Which civilizations are we talking about?
Debi: Oh, shut up!
Marty: I mean, history…
Debi: Shut up!
