This thread reminds me of this quote from Pope Benedict XVI.
"The West is laudably trying to open itself, full of understanding, to external values, but it no longer loves itself; in its own history, it now sees only what is deplorable and destructive, while it is no longer able to perceive what is great and pure."
Western nations have alot to be proud of, and they have become the model for the direction in which this world should be moving. It is a shame that so many people are taught to feel guilty, ashamed, and often unjustly critical of their own nations and civilisation.
