"Humans do not make culture; culture makes humans.” An individual cannot escape the force of destiny imposed by his culture and history. Culture, like race, appears as a transcendent category outside of our immediate consciousness but which is transmitted from generation to generation. Racial science expressed a mechanistic view of humanness, one in which human history flowed inevitably according to the laws of nature. Unesco Man embodied an idealist view, in humans were not rooted in their nature, and in which human history and culture are reified. What united the two was a common view of human beings, not as subjects, but simply as objects, in the one case of nature, in the other of culture.
It is true that humans do not make culture because culture makes us the human. It all because ever since before we are born the culture already exists because of our forefathers. When culture begins to progress people get confused what culture they are going to follow and when they didn’t follow it doesn’t mean that they makes a culture it means that they only disobey it. In this problem we are not asking who comes first the chicken or the egg; the man or culture? We all know that man comes first but the real point is the culture affects the life of human and culture makes a human a better person. What we are right now is based on the culture that we are accustomed to.
Filipino thinks that a culture is sacred that we can’t ignore or forget. We still follow it in spite of what we are what we have. We all know that the Filipinos are conservative and American is very liberated. When we went in America will there culture by being liberated or culture of America
