So many progress in the arts, literature, music, scientific innovations,
the truly peak of Western Civilization, if the greeks invented civilization,
the Age of Enlightenment perfected it.......

Beethoven's 9th is also overrated. The first and last movements are pretty bland.

Western civilization and classical civilization have entirely dissimilar world feeling, as expressed most saliently in the classical preference of geometry and proportion and the western of limits and transcendence.

I feel like I should save this from become a rude debate about why OP shouldn't have said the Greeks predate civilization, but I'm guess that all "Why is [generally agreed upon as good thing among people who identify as smart] better and all the others shite" threads around here inevitable go to hell so there's not really a point
