 | LastMessenger3 (41) 08/07/2007 | That's rediculous! We all have some sort of culture in us one way or the other considering the fact that we all came from different ones.

 | MariusQelDroma (37) 12/29/2005 | Culture is what you do and who you are. Hate it totally, and you hate yourself. Maybe this should be properly rephrased as hating cultures other then your own before I would even consider it for higher then a one.

 | CanadaSucks (50) 12/04/2005 | The listing is too vague. . .some people consider opera culture- I'd rather watch corn grow. . .

 | numbah16tdhaha (161) 12/04/2005 | The list maker doesn't know the meaning of the word if this is on the list. All culture is is rules and values of a group of people. We all have a culture and we all value it. Pull out the head, I say! (but from where, numbah?)

 | James76255 (26) 06/04/2005 | I suppose it could depend on where you're from and exactly what you consider culture, but I don't think anybody hates it.

 | Inmyopinion (10) 06/03/2005 | I will not deny the fact that we don't do a good enough job as of new keeping up with our historic places. We should be more in touch with our history. Suburban sprawl doesn't help our case either, most historic buildings/areas are in the inner cities. But unfortunetly most of the people aren't, and have left in droves. But we are trying to change that.

 | Randyman (111) 03/03/2005 | To Sundiszno, regarding the German officer. Well done! You handled that with like a true American.

 | Sundiszno (32) 03/03/2005 |  Depends on what your definition of culture is. Although people in some other countries (particularly, but not exclusively, Europe)may be much more aware of their history and may be more attuned to the arts, we definitely have many subcultures of our own here in the US. Maybe country/western music isn't opera, but with some exceptions, I'd rather listen to C/W rather than something tedious and boring. I also can't abide chamber music, so perhaps I'm unclutured. An anecdote about culture - years ago when I was stationed in Verona, Italy,at the NATO headquarters there, there was a Greman officer assigned there as well. One day at lunch I picked up an apple and just bit into it the way we Americans do (Europeans eat their fruit in a totally different way, in the case of apples, cutting it with a knife while holding it in a plate with a fork). At any rate, the German made a remark, and I quote: Ah! You Americans are so barbaric! The words were barely out of his mouth when he realized his gaffe - I just looked at him, smiled sarcastically, and replied, Yes, Frank, we Americans are real barbarians because we eat apples this way. His face turned red, and he was obviously embarassed. I'm sure that scenes of the Holocaust were going through his mind as they were through mine. So, so much for culture.

 | CastleBee (88) 01/27/2005 |  If you define culture as an interest in fine art and the humanities then I think we have that one covered. I certainly dont see people campaigning against the arts at any rate. Look around; our country has theatres, living history and arts and science museums from coast to coast. Though these kinds of establishments arent of interest to everyone (and never have been), they are obviously still very much supported and attended. Otherwise they wouldnt exist in such vast numbers. Understanding and interest come with education and opportunity. Today, more than ever, people seem interested in developing, preserving and participating in aesthetic pursuits. Looking back through our history, its easy to see and understand that the early settlers were all about survival and making it from day to day. That doesnt leave much time to dabble in the arts or establish a museum. But never-the-less, it existed even then. What has happened since is a very natural growth. This was their legacy to us and one many of us greatly appreciate.
