Every country on earth, even Pakistan (much western aid), I cannot tolerate those who think the west is superior, anymore. As much as you believe in God, other believe as much or as strong as you do. I will stand upon the gates, I will not crusade, I will stand up for my human brother....guess I am a liberal.
I refuse to belive that the "bible" didn't find it's way eastward. You religious right have a lot to answer to. I have seen the Kabbah in Mecca, Angor Waht in Thailand, there are so many beliefs in god. If you don't start to become inclusive, you will lose his message. God does not make mistakes, not ever.
umm..western civilization came from the greeks, romans, after the renaissance. I never took your land, but, you are horrible misinformed.
 
western civilization was founded by Native Americans like the Incas and the Mayans. a vital civilization flourished, before Europeans came and slaughtered them all and stole their land. have a good day. :)

ADD: i'm not Native American, so it wasn't MY land.
 
The problem you are citing has less to do with Western Civilization as a whole and more to do with something that is actually cited in the Bible as a never ending conflict.

Few people realize that Islam, Christianity, and Judaism are all based on the same fundamental Abrahamic belief system. It's just been interpreted by different people different ways. And that's what has lead to much of the conflict. Who's right, and who's wrong? Who knows! But it isn't fair of you to blame ALL of western civilization for the current conflicts in the Middle East and Asia. Then you become no better than those you criticize. Last time I checked, trying to establish a Caliphate across Asia is just as imperialist as trying to take over Iraq.
 
Rome, Greece, Renaissance, Reformation, Industrial Revolution, Democracy, Social Contract, Enlightenment, Scientific Method, Postmodernity
 
the foundation is thievery, slavery and trickery...thats why we're all going down in flames.
