Celticgirl said:I said more evolved, not more advanced. By that I mean that we are (I think) generally more accepting of other cultures and their beliefs and customs.
Technically (anthropologically) speaking, we can't be more evolve then Iran. Iran was populate maybe around the same time as Canada (?),
if we are speaking of the natives Canadians. However, Canada today, consist mostly of immigrants and theirs descendant that arrive in the last 4 century.
Canada, in 4oo years, can't be more "evolve" then a country that has 4 millennium behind it. Evolution is affair of time, it doesn't goes in 1 direction or another.
You (and I) can say that we have more freedom here, and that we prefer to live here. We can also say that it is better here, but that is
a western civilisation "anthropomorphism". I prefer it here, I am more use to it, but whenever I am tempt to say it is overall better then another place,
I know that, being part of one of the point reference of comparison, I'm bias.
