Ummm... none of those things are specific to the west.  Cleanliness is
something that most of the west gets low scores on, compared to many eastern
cultures where cleanliness is held in much higher regard.  Organization is
non-specific in general.  Tilling soil - global, ditto irrigation (which was
practically invented in that region).  Equality for women is a different
matter - but then again, much of the west was incredibly slow to adopt it
where other cultures embraced it early on.  Child sex toys - imprisonable
here, executable there.  As for education, it's more a matter of what than
how much.  The middle east has a history of education, and preserved much of
what europe lost during the dark ages.  The primary difference is much of
their education is theological whereas ours is secular.
