What is a civilization?

Hopefully, when members of our body of Christ read my thread it will enlighten you spiritually, intellectually and legally. Pardon my speech. It may sound as a tongue twister. Yet, such is unavoidable due to the topic.

A civilization is a civic society that seeks to secure the civil liberties of its civilians. The civilians, who live within the city elect civic officials to legislate civil laws. The civil laws permit the civilians to settle his or her civil dispute in a civilized fashion. The civic community benefits when each civilian demonstrates his or her civility to act civil.

In contrast, an uncivilized and/or rural society, seeks to secure law and order through primitive means of enforcing martial law. Martial law does not acknowledge the civil liberties of its civilian population. Rather, its ruling class legislates laws that order the civilians to believe and/or behave in a uniform manner to reflect the views of the moral majority.

Under martial law, the State can court martial a civilian as if he or she were a militant soldier. A militant soldier is construed as property. Thus, he or she is not afforded his or her civil right to petition the government for a redress of grievances. Whereas, property may not bring suit in court (See Dred Scott vs. Irene Sandford 1865 USC).

In retaliation, the militants take up arms against the government to defend his or her civil rights through uncivilized means. The repercussion leads to a reckless endangerment of each civilian. As the danger escalates to crisis levels, then the civilians are coerced to pay higher taxes to the government. The government utilizes the taxes to hire police and/or military to protect the civilian population from the militants, who refuse to be ordered around by the government.

The end product of imposing martial law upon a civilian population is anarchy against the government and/or complete collapse thereof.

When I think civilization vs non-civilization i think -

People in permanent structures vs nomadic who move and build temporary structures. People who plan and grow their food vs those who hunt and forage for it.

To a lesser extent I think civilization implies a larger population, highly organized with certain members able to specialize in non-food oriented endeavors. Where a non-civilization is smaller, organized more loosely, with nearly all members engaged in food oriented activities.

Frankly, I dont think your definitions have anything to do with the term "civilization" at all. Weather or not you have civil rights is irrelevant civilization vs. non-civilization.

The term 'civilization' or 'civilized' is often used to promote one society as better than the other. Problem is every society thinks they are 'civilized' , even if they have martial law, racism etc. So I dont think that usage of the term is useful at all.

Civilizations are accidently created

Civilizations are created to help push the survival of our species. Yet the funny thing is that very concept will destroy us as a whole.

Civilization is a product of a sedentary lifestyle obtained through agriculture. Without said sedentary lifestyle, ADD, cancer, heart disease, and so on are unheard of.

One thing that I've seen neglected here, I think that a civilization is a collection of people of like culture. A civilization only survives as long as it is made up of people of the same culture/race/ethnicity. Once various other ethnicities start coming in, especially from far-varying ethnicities, civilization collapses. If you don't believe me, start watching TV for the next 10 years.
