Gotta love it! Most amazing creative civilization ever to run this planet. What a terrific long history of people interacting and inventing and thinking and fighting for individual rights. Proud and happy to be descended from the great Europeans - all the way back to the early Romans, through the Greeks, etc etc.

well, there are so many things to consider when stating an opinion on western civilization as a whole. this is a really broad question, which is really difficult to answer. overall, i would say i am more in tuned with the western civilization and i find the history to be rather interesting.... but then again i love all history.

It's awesome. I can't imagine life without the internet, electricity, and most importantly indoor plumbing! I still can't believe that people take dumps in the woods and wipe their butt on a tree. I love how western civilizations waste money and resources extravagantly, paying no heed to the future. I also love western women. Basically, I love my cozy life of excess that western civilization allows me.

Western Civilization - and its tantalizing thrusts of Mystery, Majesty, Malevolence, Magnificence, Dynasties, Democracies, Dictatorships - creating enigmas and questions. Its mighty achievements and dismal failures, its frenzies for freedom and its relapses to brutal repression - forma core of Power and Progress. And in that mix of contradictions and complexities, the portion of the world known as Western Civilization remains as a power core of the world

I can think of another term for western civilization.....FREEDOM. I don't think it's easy. It's something people have died for. It's just about the greatest thing in the world. And if people don't like it, they can always move to a less free country, like N. Korea.

As a course in high school, it was tough to read all of the books !.I loved Western and Eastern civ though.
If you are asking about the current condition of the world, from the western perspective, not bad ! not bad at all.

It's too bad it didn't spread across the Atlantic.
