Some definitions of civilization
The word "civilization" comes fromthe Latin word "ceves" (meaning citizen). Originally to be “civilized” means: city dwelling is protected by the constitution and law of Rouen Belonging to the larger Roman community It is difficult to define the term “civilization” exactly because people all over the world have different conceptions of the term “civilization,” and thus the term “civilization” It is a less specific term than an obvious one. Here are some textual definitions of
civilization.
Civilization is
a form of humanculture in which many people live in urban centers, have mastered the art of metal smelting, and have developed a way of writing. The first civilizations began in cities, which were larger, more densely populated, and more complex in their political, economic, and social structure than Neolithic villages. One definition of civilization requires that a civilized people have a sense of history - which means that the past is important in the present, although it is difficult to define "civilization "butit is possible to know the factors that gave rise to civilization and the
characteristics of civilizations.
The Eight Stages of the Rise and Fall of Civilizations
Sociologists and anthropologists havedescribed the stages of the rise and fall of the world's great civilizations.The Scottish philosopher Alexander Tyler of the University of Edinburgh notedeight stages that very well illustrate what history reveals. I first cameacross this in Ted Flynn's book "The Great Metamorphosis", They provide a great deal of perspective for what we are currently going through, let's take a look at each of the eight stages.
First stage: From slavery to spiritual growth
Great civilizations are formed in the crucible. The ancient Jews were enslaved for 400 years in Egypt. The Christian faith and the church emerged from 300 years of persecution. Western Christianity emerged from the chaotic struggles during the collapse of the Roman Empire and the fierce "barbarian" tribes' movements, often. American culture was shaped by the oppression that grew in the colonial era. Pain and injustice cause - even strength - spiritual growth, pain brings wisdom and requires a spiritual discipline that seeks justice and solutions.
Second stage: From spiritual growth to great courage
Third stage: From courage to freedom
4 - From freedom to abundance
Heralds greater prosperity, because civilization still operates on the virtues of sacrifice and hard work. But then comes the first danger: abundance. Things in great abundance tend to overburden us and take on a life of their own. At the same time, the struggles that generate wisdom and strengthen the spirit for proper discipline and priorities move into the background. Jesus said that a person's life does not consist of his possessions, but just try to tell that to people in a culture who begin to experience abundance. Such a culture lives on the fumes of previous sacrifices. Its people became less willing to make such sacrifices, parables diminish in importance and abundance weigh down the souls of citizens. The sacrifices, discipline, and virtues responsible for the flourishing of civilization are increasingly far from the collective conscience; Enjoying its fruits becomes the focus.
