The real question is, is the old way of doing things no longer applicable in today's society because there is something wrong with the old way of doing things or because there is something wrong with today's society?:hmm:
I wouldn't use the word "wrong". I'd use the word "changed". Over time, people, society, everything evolves and changes. Everything moves on. There's always going to be the people who cling to the past and claim that the new ways of doing things are wrong, but in reality, it's society evolving. Things change and each party is going to have to change with it if they expect to keep voters. The conservative party has fairly consistently been clinging to the old philosophies and way of doing things. The majority of their supporters are people who tend to want to cling to the past or don't handle change well such as big businesses being run by the "good old boys". While not all the conservatives fall into this category, the vast number of their supporters certainly do and as a matter of fact, usually oppose change in the country's philosophies and those made by scientific discoveries.
So I wouldn't use the word "wrong" at all. Nothing is "wrong". It's just change like we've been doing since the beginning of time.
