        Like assuming you possess some sort of genetic intellectual superiority over the darkies? That sort of weak, negative trait?

            Weak, negative traits like assuming that all races and cultures are equal in every aspect.

                    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...

                      For the 99.9% of good and decent Christians and Muslims, we see neither as a threat.

                        how is saying this isolating non-whites, seeing as how the head of the CRE, trevor phillips (aka the blackest man in the world) said the same things last year.

                        and whatever the motive behind this statement (when are politicians NOT posturing?), davis is right.

                          Just as individuals differ in their inherent potential, so do races. After all, races are just groups of individuals - why would you expect them all to have exactly the same average potential?

                            I don't see many Christians blowing themselves up in order to destroy non-Christians.

                              I wouldn't trust the Tories to sensibly tone down multiculturalism. They'd almost certainly make a mess of it.

                              I'm fairly indifferent to multiculturalism. I do object to the concept of 'vibrancy', though - ethnically diverse areas are neither better nor worse than homogenous ones.
