All people are human beings and their is not one more superior than another. All desire and deserve respect. Even you! With your pathetic, ignorant comment!

No, German culture is not superior to any of the many African cultures. Africa is a huge continent, for pity's sake--how silly to lump all these countries together!
It is unacceptable to label other cultures in any way because that involves passing judgment on them. How could you possibly pass judgment on something you don't begin to understand? And why would you want to?
Experiencing other cultures is an option in our increasingly small world--and it is a privilege. Judging other cultures as less than your own is at the very least ignorant, and probably racist, too.

I second what professortvz wrote. Everybody thinks their own culture is normal and good and finds cultures that are very different weird and even silly. There is really no objective way to conclude which culture is better because everyone sees it through the eyes of their own culture. Germans and people with a similar culture like the German one will think it's better than the African one, but the Africans will think their culture is better than the German culture.

I don't think any culture can be better than another, people only think it is because they can't think outside of the box of their own culture and norms.

Anthropologists have long known that it is very difficult to make cross cultural comparisons. We all have our cultural biases, and think our culture is better than any other, and the others look silly to us. Some cultures may indeed be better than others, but there is no objective way to judge them. This is even true with concepts like beauty and intelligence which we all define within a cultural context. The others like family life, sexual atitttudes, religious practices, food and drink, housing are all completely impossible to compare.

Because they're all human. It's downright ignorant to say one human is better than the other. Get a clue!

It's like Mutual Assured Destruction.
You don't hit us, we don't hit you, everyone lives.
They are never going to become like us so let them have their own ways.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
If you respect others they will respect you.
If you tolerate others they will tolerate you.
If you allow others to have human right, free speech, freedom of religion and so forth they will allow you.

What exactly are you saying???? Get your English together...better yet get your mind together. No one is better than anyone else although ones behavior being better or worse than another's may be in question.
