But don't every generation of doctors (or even human beings, for that matter) think that they are the most evolved and advanced of their time? I'm totally pulling a rule from the Burbank Book here, but I think it's a trap for a white man in 2007 in America to sit back and think that they are the most tolerant, intelligent, and advanced human that has ever lived. Evil and ignorance come in spears and space suits, and often have the same result.
So I'm skeptical of dismissing the Court's ruling on the grounds of modern science or medicine, and I defer to my previous point about eugenics. The Court is in fact an inherently conservative institution, so calling them such in a negative sense seems sort of silly to me.
And btw, the "I-Mockery residents" comment was directed at you, Mr. full disclosure.
