Best Answer

Europeans believed that Christian Morality, Civil Government, Science and Technology, made them more advanced than the non-christian world. They believed the "White Man's Burden" was to bring Christianity, Democratic Reform, Good Govt., and Scientific Progress to the Heathens. This was the justification for European Colonialism.
