That's one of the most stupid politically correct ideas of the modern times. Thinking descendants of perpetrators owe anything to descendant of victim fails to account that, in most cases, the victims would actually have done the same than th eperpetrators had they be in the similar position of power (see slavery / natives vs europeans).

Actually they didn't. They just hid the option
> If you believe your system is better, then you really should not have to actively participate in fighting opposing systems of belief. Forcing it through just shows that you are motivated by self interest, and not a core belief in the superiority of your own values.
Uh why ? I think it's exactly the opposite
Skydiving isnt more dangerous than riding a motorbike daily.
Also even though a agree with your bigger point its not really what happens here. People are just being stupid here, not even understanding they are playing with their life.

Does that use the real trajectories of the planets (such as give by the JPL ephemerides) or or eliptical approximations ?
you are missing the truth and goal of such an article. people here think they are a counterpower to evil actors with their keyboards. The truth doesn't matter and you are going into the sense of enabling police instead of being acting as a counter power.
