Why are we like that???

This is an example of inspirational blog:

I am a Muslim and one of my duties is to speak the truth in the face of any body without fear. Muslims are all the time cynical about the intention of the Westerners whenever a contact between them takes place. Besides, Muslims are firmly convinced that values are absolutely absent in the West. They are willing to reject any thing that might come from the Americans or the Europeans on the account that virtues have disappeared in the west and are now replaced by nihilism, hedonism and ethical decadence. This is an extremely essentialist and mistaken view. I have been living in the US and France for sometimes and I have noticed how people are friendly and considerate to each other. I was amazed by the kindness of the college dean and president when talking to students, by the smiling faces of people I meet in the morning, by their readiness to offer the hand of help, by the patience of cars drivers, by the innocent truthfulness of their talk, by their strict keeping of appointment and promises, by their avoidance of talking on the back of other people and interfering on the others’ business, by their vivid awareness of the necessity of saving our environment, these are but few to mention. Ironically enough, the reverse of these positive traits and demeanors struck our Islamic countries though Islam has preached these same qualities since its genesis. Perhaps, there is some validity in the common saying nowadays that the sun of Islam will rise from the West this time.
