Do you agree that the Western civilizations have a clear lineage that focuses on majority of these attributes: competition/innovation, science, property rights, personal freedoms, and free-market economy? What contributions (if any) did non-western civilizations make to these attributes?
It can be argued that Western Civilization was heavily influenced by the Christian faith and spread of the Christian faith. Do you believe the West still has the lead and control of these in the present day?
