Its not that we should "escape" culture, rather ist that wee should not be restrained by it.
Im loathe to go too deep in this as it will quickly spiral into a existencialism vs. "zen" disscussion.
Im more interested in this topic at a suraface level.
Culture is never a valid defense for anything.
Its not bad, but its not "good" either. It can have good and bad elements both, and all these should be judged on their value rather than on their history.
