The importance of culture

-Culture determines what we know-- the sum of all the angles in a triangle; what a screw driver is used for; how to use a computer to find out where Peloponnesians are.

-Culture determines what we don't know-- how to catch a fish by hand; how to build a dugout canoe and navigate the Seas without chart or compass.

-Culture determines what we want to be-- lawyer; dairy farmer; computer programmer; doctor; shaman; pearl diver
