The dine bahane does need to be preserved, its a scripture from the native americans who had wisdom long gone from the destrcution of the spaniards. We need to preserve as much of it as possible.

 I think the undertones in the story are marvelous, as a society we do need guidelines essentially to keep peace and order. Do you think there is a conflict between the modern times and the ancient wisdom? As theres always two sides to a story, the never ending struggle between traditionalists and conformists which side would you side with. 

Stick with old wisdom, or move forward with new ideas.
