  • @Siphonpiratuncolo Thanks, that's a good point to consider. Think also, though, of the fact that the abolition of slavery doesn't spontaneously materialize. It's first existence is as an idea, which must be materialized over time. The humanism of that era gave us our material advantages now. Meantime, standards fall, and we may expect slavery to return for that reason. Therefore I advocate raising standards. I don't actually over-romanticize a past era as a golden age.

  • @stephenspry evolution doesn't only have to do with language. Yes they spoke like this but they stank and shat in holes in the grounds, they bought and sold human beings, and this is just the voice of shakespeare who was a genius. Think about the average elizabethan guy, thief, prostitutes and so all.

  • This 400 years old English shows how we've degenerated. If 400 years from now we spoke as we hear here, it would show great evolution. May this be usual speech going forward.
