Westernization and Human Welfare

THE PHILOSOPHICAL SOURCES OF WESTERN MATE~IALISM T~ society of ancient Gree~e was the earliest in hi~tory to divorce its institutions, customs, arts and scienceS from religion. In other words, ancient Greece was the first truly secular society. Its philosophy was based on the premise that a perfect, harmonious society filled with beauty and justice could be achieved by an intelligent, rational application of human reason unaided by any supernatural power. This secular ideal has remained the dominant theme of  Westerncivilization to this day.
