    Nope, I'm not ashamed in the slightest.

      I wasn't suggesting they were the same,I think there is a big difference between saying cultures and races are different, and cultures and races are not equal.

          Looks like we are confusing our terms. Naturally, it's only decent to endeavor to treat people of all races as individuals, but this doesn't mean we should ignore differences.

            That might be reasonable if you weren't trying to find those differences based on something as genetically weak as skin tone.

              Ok.. I thought maybe thats what you was getting at.

              I guess the question is, what constitutes a GOOD difference, and a BAD difference .. that is probably going to be in the eye of the beholder.

                Cal thinks Blacks are less intelligent and more prone to criminal behaviour than Whites, and that there is a genetic racial basis to this. Don't you, Cal?

                  Yes he does. But he doesn't believe that's racism.

                    That's true. He thinks it's science. Even if he struggles to back it up.

                        Is it just me who considers both Islam and Christianity to be an equal danger. I am no fan of religion and I certainly have no preference for one over the other...


                        Ditto.

                          I am no fan of neither, but that doesn't mean they're equally dangerous, especially in europe.

                              Well so far in Europe Christians have killed more Christians and Muslims than Muslims have killed Christians.


                              And I didn't notice the squeaky clean British cultural values keeping the Soho Pub Bomber, Dr. Harold Shipman or the Ulster Freedom Fighters from killing anybody.


                              Still, it's so easy to condemn multiculturalism when you're being vague about what it actually entails or what you mean by it in any given context. It's become as hackneyed a phrase for the Right wing as 'politically correct' in all its usage and abusage.

                              Do they mean the 'family values' of traditional Muslim and Sikh and Hindu families, for instance ?

                              Or the strict Christian upbringings and associated mores of immigrant African and Afro-Caribbean families ?

                              Or the sense of familial duty inculcated in the Chinese community ?
