Ah, I'd say there's a difference between rebelling against unjust, arbitrary social conventions and denying the accumulation of knowledge. Even counterculturalists can only work with what they have. There's no such thing as pure originality or creation ex nihilo, at least not in nature without the aid of a miracle. The character of Jesus (setting aside the question of his historicity) built on certain precedents, which were the cutting edges at the time. But those edges change many times over the course of history. There is, then, such a thing as a merely archaic suggestion, as in one that's obsolete and retrograde.

Mind you, I'm not saying we should defer to every aspect of modernity just because it's contemporary. On the contrary, I criticize secular humanism, consumerism, scientism, the political spectrum (the bogus respect for so-called conservative thought), and so on. But I don't think we should be cultural relativists. Knowledge accumulates, so we shouldn't overlook the best of settled conventions.
