Comment 1231 for bug 1

Westerners do not want to evolve or learn. This is one of many indications that western civilizations has now reached their climax and entered into stagnation. Other civilizations that do evolve will pass us by and the western world will be passed. This is how Rome ended, and how most civilizations ends.
