But is culture based on knowledge? Christians felt they knew God existed & unrepentant souls damned. Tiv knew something else.

Well, many of the religious differences between cultures are due to fashion and memes and stuff, not genuine knowledge about the world.

Yes, and I'm not sure genuine knowledge ever forms the basis of more than a part of culture. So much more that's important to humans.

It doesn't, but reason/knowledge/science is a very important part in that it's the only part which allows us to make progress.

Yes but I'm not sure we build much culture around it but now I sense we're using the word a bit differently.

Societies which value knowledge and science and reason do better but not much culture is built around it.

Isn't science part of culture? And have we not built our societies using the fruits of science and technology?

Its part of society. Culture? No. Subcultures might be formed around it. Most ppl probably think or talk abt it seldom whilst benefitting.

Science is a human activity, so in that sense I'm including it as part of culture.

It has been made more accessible to ppl & become more part of social conversation with popular programmes. It gets presented as stories.
