Is Western History a Hoax? [JT #108]

The legitimacy of the West as a global civilization rests on the pillars of the Renaissance and the Bible. Children of the West, for example, are told of the ancient Hebrews and their exodus from Israel, of the Egyptians, the Persians, and the Babylonians, of classical antiquity, of ancient Greece and Rome, and of how Italians and Germans picked up where they left off to establish modern Western civilization, as though the West were the one legitimate recipient of all past civilizational knowledge.
