hard2miss Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 But it doesn't, any more. In the modern world, we need for all humanity to co-operate, and tribal thinking is positively dangerous.And we are going to lead the way are we ? We have been there, done that, and its left us with a great deal of resentment in the world. 'Lets start a crusade for the new millennium, A new age of British divine thinking that the world should adopt because we are right and they are just a load of uncivilized tribal numpties !'

HeadingNorth Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 And we are going to lead the way are we ? It would be a start. Let's change our own attitudes to ones that will fit today's world and reduce the social problems we have in this country, and just maybe some other countries might adopt our example. It's not as if we can force anyone to do so, or should do even if we could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeadingNorth Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 You mean try and amend the mess that multi culturism has brought ? It is not multi-culturalism that causes the mess. It's the oudated, bigoted attitudes of people who cannot accept it. There are innumerable multi-cultural societies in the world that work quite successfully, so it's absurd to suggest that the one here can't work.

danot Posted August 1, 2010 Author Share Posted August 1, 2010 You mean try and amend the mess that multi culturism has brought ? another great idea we had.Multi-culturalism hasn't spoilt Britain, it's our Governments inability to view everyone as being being equal that's spoilt it. The laws and legislations they impose must apply to everyone, regardless of our race or religion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hard2miss Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 How far do you think you can go with multiculturalism without loosing your own identity ? Who attitudes exactly are you talking about amending about this brave new world ? This is always going to come back to 'Muslims' so are you suggesting that they drop it all and we all live under one happy umbrella or that everyone here convert to Islam ? I say this because we have had all this before when it was the West Indies and they have seemed to fit in well now and theres been a great deal of acceptance on either side but there was not the conflicting attitudes and religious discourse we have now regarding multiculturalism, to many here that word means that the native population does a lot of bending over backwards for the approval of our Muslim citizens.

Muslims are not the problem here, it's the way of our government and local authorities view and treat ethnic minorities that's the problem. No two people should be treated differently because of differences in race or religion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please give me a little more insight into what you actually mean and how you would go about implementing this line of thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What more can I tell you?.. our society consists of a diversity of races and religions which the government an local authorities are farcically struggling to cope with.
