Has C Walker responded to the fact that he is a dirty ukrainian refugee yet? He should be banned if he doesn't admit that he'll never be an all American white jock like me and he deserves to be washing my grand marquis for minimum wage right now

Western civilization pretty much refers to Europe, the US, Canada, Australia.......
Let me ask you a question, ignorant one... when you refer to Western Civilization are you talking about just North America and Europe, or are there other nations you're including?

Western civilization pretty much refers to Europe, the US, Canada, Australia.......I understand there are different definitions, since the meaning has changed over time, and even today it has multiple meanings, but in this discussion we'll just stick to the inclusions of the term since the Cold War. If you want to talk about First World/Third World... developed nations and developing nations... then I have to inform you that Japan is a developed nation.If you want to talk about capitalism/economies I could give you a list of countries you didn't include where a capitalist system is in use. In addition, I could name several countries where the per capita GDP is higher than that of certain countries in Europe. By the way, Israel is not in Europe, America, or Australia, so do you also want to include Israel in your list? (democracy, capitalism). Since you mentioned democracy... did you know that about 3 billion people in the world are living under "democracies" (by name), and about 1/3 of those are living in India? 1/6 of the world's population is living under a democracy in India. Now we could also talk about the literal meaning of the word... "the West", which would also include Latin America. You obviously weren't using it in the literal sense then. The term is generally used to refer to richer nations, so some people have decided to use "the North" instead... but then again, Australia would not be on your list. So let's see... you use the term, but make your own exclusions, so that only nations generally considered to be WHITE are included. I thought you don't try to be politically correct, so just say what you meant to say, Adolf. You are saying that white people are superior to other people, but you're afraid to admit that you agree with Hitler's beliefs. You're no American, buddy.
Ant is a typical left winger. They want to censor anyone who has a viewpoint that is different than their own. They do it all the time to conservatives on college campuses. I guess it is easier for Ant to get me banned then it is to prove me wrong.In all seriousnous, saying that western civilization is superior to other cultures is just the brutal honest truth. Capitalism, democracy, separation of church and state, freedom of religion, frreedom of speech, human rights.......those are all western concepts and they are what make us better than China, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, etc. Stop with the nonsense that all societies are equal, man. You are living in a simplistic, politically correct dreamworld.
