     Ah, now it becomes clear!  A civilization is a civilization if
and only if it has the attributes of a European civilization.  OK,
Phil, I concede--if you define civilization that way then there has
never been and never will be a civilization in the world that did
not originate in or derive from European civilization.
     (And Phil wonders why we ask him for precise definitions of
terms...and why we snicker at his imprecisions.)
     For your next project, Phil, find at least ten instances each
in European civilizations of life being cheap and women worthless; 
of slavery and forced state religion; and of Hitlerism...well, one
example of European Hitlerism will do.
