    If anyone of you saw the movie avatar then you may have already realized that it depicted the times when superpowers turned resource rich islands into colonies. On the side of the indigenous people having little advancement in their technology, it is because they are already sufficient in their resources. Why bother when they can eat as much as they would like and everything around them is very abundant. Japan, Britain are island nations with virtually no/little resources, so they are compelled to colonize other countries and get their resources. Suway kuno ug di ka mukaon ug pila ka adlaw aron makaamgo ka nga di lalim ang kinabuhi. Swerte ta kaayo mga pilipino nga abunda ang atong nasod. Bisan pa ug dili ka manarbaho, mabuhi lang gihapon kita. Tanom lng ka ug kamunggay paresan ug lagutmon, aw hayahay na.

    Landes asserts that nations where there was Protestant Reformation gave Northern Europe an important intellectual advantage and big boost to literacy over Catholic Southern Europe. The Catholic countries, instead of meeting the challenge, responded by closure and censure.

    He maintains that western European, and especially British, culture is superior to others at promoting people’s well-being. He makes the same case for the virtues of Protestantism. The Roman church found truths about nature in the scripture, so new ideas were potentially subversive. Protestant culture gave individuals more freedom to think for themselves, to innovate, and to keep the rewards of their successes.

    However, his argument is generally convincing, but not entirely so. For example, he notes that the Japanese culture once lacked the work ethic of western Europe and was hampered by an institutional rigidity and isolationism similar to China’s. But Japanese culture changed, permitting industrialization, economic growth, and wealth. Thus, culture is not unchangeable. Moreover, “religious” aspects of culture are not tied to particular religions. The Japanese adopted the Protestant work ethic without adopting the religion.

So why are they so progressive is it because of there religion No, its because of how they work as a community, they work for there country.
    Maybe its because of Christianity itself and not religion per se.

    i would still prefer being a colony of Spain than Britain. otherwise, i'd never experience my grandmother's extensive sermon on God, society and servitude in broken Spanish.
