    Is western civilisation better than aboriginies of the past?

    yes it is, comparing the western world on the whole, with aboriginal culture of the past iirc "the whole" is past, present and future (although we don't know the future, so it is the past and the present). THE PAST IS THERE, YOU CAN'T IGNORE IT. Fine then, ill wind back 200 years again for...

    Is western civilisation better than aboriginies of the past?

    wth do u mean? i believe the source that said that aboriginal women were arranged/force to marry "old men". but europe/the western world at the same time as them, was enslaving women, which is a whole lot worse.

    Is western civilisation better than aboriginies of the past?

    Tell me which is more important, to be able: to do what you want (freedom of LIFE) or to marry whoever you want (freedom to MARRY) If you say that being a slave is better than being forced to marry someone, then your conscience is fucked. Phillis Wheatley was not the only slavewoman in...

    Is western civilisation better than aboriginies of the past?

    i have never said Indigenous culture is BETTER, i'm simply trying to say that they are equal. Nobody has tried to argue that Indigenous Culture is better because the plain and simple fact is that IT'S NOT. But who say's it can't be equal... I am just trying to bring down the western...

    Is western civilisation better than aboriginies of the past?

    but can you prove that they deliberately went out of their way and did everything they could to make them live longer, such as transplanting organs, etc...except something they did, not us! i said...they can coexist, someone can value life for however long it is, but still want to live...

    Is western civilisation better than aboriginies of the past?

    The traditional aborigines probably valued their life for however long it is...they don't go and deliberately try to live longer. They accept that death is a part of life, and it happens. "You get what you are given".

    Is western civilisation better than aboriginies of the past?

    yes, these morons don't quite seem to get that mortality (deaths) or how long you live, is not a factor in judging whether a culture is superior, there is no factor for judging the superiority of a culture. this is because there are no superior cultures, only simple and more complex ones...and...
