As you see other cultures from your own ethnocentric point of vieuw, you will judge them according to your own values, however these are not universal. I think one cannot really judge who has a better culture. More even, I would say a culture is not better then another. One can of course say, what he prefers, but that's jubjective.

I vote for the Bushmen culture.
It's interesting that the San people have neither romantic engagements to keep, nor trials to follow, nor low deeds to publish, nor new pieces of poetry to -"they peacefully watch the sun to the end of its day and worry little whether twenty thousand clocks bring sorrow to some and happiness to others", (Le Vaillant-1990).

What's more they are genetically purest among surviving humans.

I will reply seriously,don't care if it is fun or not,because there are so many others watching this.There is no greater culture because every culture is unique.Every culture has it's own way of thinking .It's own ideology.

My culture -or at least the culture I aspire to.
It's a culture of all cultures.
It's a culture of respect even of those cultures that are not practiced.
It's a culture of respect, even if one is proud of only a few.
It's a culture of tolerance and of forgiveness. But not a culture of forgetfulness...
It's a culture of knowledge, of patience, of peace and of growth.
And all are invited if they so choose.

Greco-Roman culture. There's no competition, in my mind. The only culture strong enough to survive and adapt for two thousand seven hundred and fifty six years. I see remnants and copies of it every day.

um.... you do realise that this thread was made to ridicule people that say their culture is the best right.....
anyway, i think you mean greek culture. roman culture is basically greek culture, and greco roman is not as old as greek culture.
and still, greco roman isnt the oldest, but its one of the oldest.

Germanic culture the most naturally advanced. If they had not been ganged up on in WWII and defeated, they would probably have colonies on Mars by now. The world is stuck in a pc nightmare and we will never get ahead.

But unfortunately that would be via slave labour, the world would be filled with genocides and nations would be brainwashed. Also German economy couldnt have handled it necessarily, especially mixed in with the years of pacification later required. And thats not much of a culture superiority argument.
