  1. To be honest I didn't really understand your question. So I anwswered to what I thought you meant

    Everything has a positive and negative side. Living life these days is about combining proven   to find and build the right path for our new evolution.  No nothing on earth is iferior. It all has it's place. I don't always understand it But I choose to work hard at not being ignorant.


  2. Empty vessels make more noise. The pure philosophical content is missing in most of the religions today and ritualistic and group behavior has overtaken. A group can always act irresponsibly because no individual feels responsible when acting along with the group. In my personal opinion, there is much to learn from both the Western and the Eastern philosophies and in some way, they overlap each other too. It is the narrow-minded religious fanatics who vitiate the atmosphere bringing up 'me' sentiment rather than 'you&me' feeling.  

  3. I'm not entirely sure hat you're asking but this is what I think the question is:

    Why do westerners try to impose their religious/political views on Easterners?

    Because Christianity is evangelical and wants everybody to worship their particular deity. They feel the need to 'save' the 'heathen infidels' of Africa, Asia, and the Middle-East from original sin by accepting Jesus.

    By contrast, Eastern philsophies and religions (Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism etc) essentially just want people to live decent lives and not cause trouble. They are not interested in 'converting' people. This makes the East seem like an easy target for evangelical idiots who want to impose their self-righteous dogma on everybody else.

  4. Asians are no way inferior in any aspect or respect.

  5. For the rest of you, the asker is probably questioning the reason behind Western world's propagation of western religion into the east.

    For the asker. Western society used to believe (and maybe still believe) that they have a job given from their God. The job is to spread their culture and religion to everybody because they are "better." The term "white man's burden" is often used to describe such a belief. Under this belief, Westerners often convinced (sometimes by force) other ethnicities to convert to western views and beliefs.

    Of course, in reality there is no better religion or culture. If anything, the western view is worse because it converted many easterners, preventing the original eastern cultures from being passed down. That's a good wealth of knowledge lost forever.

    This is a very dumbed down version. I suggest you do some research on your own to get the whole picture.

    By preaching to others and busy to change others, they can forget to change themselves. (Tolstory)
