"Guess we need to start rounding up those nasty Christians for their ancestor's misdeeds during the Crusades, as well as their wholesale lynching of blacks in the South up until just a very few years ago."

Nobody said anything about rounding up anyone for their ancestor's misdeeds. Where did THAT come from?

Any culture today that sentences rape for a teen girl as punishment for her brother should be eliminated from the planet, as pure evil. Do you agree? Yes or no?

Any such culture needs some serious work, I would agree. Not sure I'd go so far as to suggest wiping out all the members of that particular culture, though.

Cultures, or aspects of a culture, can be destroyed without wiping out the people unfortunate enough to be born into them.

No. And your question is based upon a false assumption.

The culture didn't sentence that girl to be raped, a few corrupt, evil judges and townspeople did. If rape-as-punishment were the usual penalty within a culture, don't you think that we would be reading about incidents like this every day?
