This thread does not have any room for insult, racist or ethnic overtone. It is not about Biafranigeria politics of exclusion. It is your culture second handed to western culture. It is intellectually meant to be a stimulating conversation and a challenge to some of you who actually have some or greater sense of knowledge. This is not for oneliners. If you consider yourself well read with diversed book knowledge prove it. I challenge each an every one to brainstorm on this issue and make a contribution to a greater expectation of your knowledge. This is about the western culture over others. Your feed back.

WAYPOINT 1BIAFRA. HIS TAKE

To all others, some will say because of the indespensible achievement of the west has the concept of individual rights and progressiveness. It's the idea that individuals have certain inalienable rights do not exist to serve the government but the government exist to protect these inelienable rights. If the western values is not superior why do so many flock to their environment and hold western values? There is no doubt that western value has produced individual rights, unprecedented health, life expectactancy health, and comfort. It took until the 17th Century for that idea to arrive and mostly through the works of English Philosophers like John Locke and David Hume.

THE OTHER ARGUMENT
However, some will argue that western values is by means superior because it's individualism breeds sub-culture and sexual prosmiscuity. The culture has certain characteristics of vices, which has previaled almost universally. These are vices which has no control. These vices comes in flattering devil, a sweet poisen and a pleasant sin. There scarcely a crime or disease today that is not, directly or indirectly, caused by the western culture. Some will say that of all cultures, western values is the fruit of disordered affections; this disorders banishes reason. Impairs the soul. I wish not to elaborate further.

In conclusion no culture can live if it attempts to be exclusive.I do not particularly but slightly believe that the western culture is superior to others, however; of it's popularity in every living room on this earth, our taste for good living[technology] and fascination with me firt and you second. I am inclined to think that way without being indicted. Your rebuttle.
