There has to be someone else here that finds that perfect

A completely hedonistic society with no consequence? Is everyone else focusing on different things?

The only problem I had was the antiquated racial views of the author. The caste system too wasn’t necessary but it didn't bother me. The concept? Loved it!

I am aware of the highly controversial views on homosexuality of the author (Scruton), but am unaware of anything controversial about race.

Regardless, a person can say many deeply true things across a number of domains, yet be quite wrong in various places. From what I have read from him, this seems to be the case.

Glad you liked that passage!
