Many
people
today
think
of

understanding
of
culture
equates
culture
with
civilization
and
contrasts
both

According

this
understanding
of
culture
,
some
countries
are
more
civilized
than
others
,
and
some
people
are
more

others
.

like
Matthew

(
1822
-
1888
)
believed
that
culture
is
simply
that
which
is
created
by
"
the
best
that
has
been
thought
and
said
in
the
world
"
