I wouldn't recommend using collapsed civilizations as the beacon for what's good and right for a healthy and well-functioning society.

I didn’t use any adjectives to describe their society. Only commented that you can’t think that “conservatism” is always about believing in God, in monogamy, etc.
Given that no human society seems to last forever, that sounds like a good way to run out of acceptable ways to build one.
