Canem Malum,

Many cultures don't have countries of their own.
They have to share their territories with other
cultures and of course that is sometimes
problematic. Education helps to format people
within the boundaries

To Foxy- Education is not always enough. Some cultural problems need to be dealt with otherwise they impact on others. Just like some people need to be incarcerated for the public good. Groups of people are similar to individuals- there are good and bad ones.

Canem Malum,

There are good people and bad people in every culture
and of course people who break the law should be dealt
with - no matter which culture they're from. However
education is very important - especially with the
young - they are the future.

Foxy what is the good and bad you refer too? Is stoning a woman taken in adultery Good? Is removing the head of an apostate good. In one culture these are good practise. Practices that are currently enforced. So what is your good and bad in every culture? Rather naïve comment!

Foxy whose education system are you referring too? Those that indoctrinate their young that the State of Israel and capitalism must be destroyed. This curriculum is taught in many countries schools. That is why some Western Countries find these the enemy of freedom. You are so vague in what is reality.

Josephus,

It was American Rabbi Marianne Williamson who put it
so well when she wrote in her book, "Illuminata,"

"In the US today, there is a widespread
malignant thought form that other people are the
problem." This is true in our country as well. Conservatives
tend to blame progressives for their problems, while
progressives blame conservatives. The media blames almost
everyone and almost everyone blames immigrants. Some
people are convinced homosexuals are the problem, while
others think that single mothers are the problem. Still
others think the Christian Right are the problem and far too
many people think that parents are the problem, whilst
others blame the teachers. The entire culture has
become a hysterical blame session.

Yet a healthy vital society is not one in which we all agree.
It is one in which those who disagree can do so with
honour and respect for other people's opinions, and an
appreciation of our shared humanity. Without personal
commitment to the attributes of fair play and integrity,
all of us are in grave danger. Malice and intolerance
stalk our society, making claims to our minds and not one
corner of our social order is unaffected.

This darkness is a significant threat to our national
good, perhaps the most significant threat in our history,
for it strikes at the heart of democracy. Where people are
not free to disagree, there can be no democracy, since
that is what democracy is.

The only way to protect our freedom is to check the
hatred in our own minds. Our political conversations must
shift away from the mass, infantile finger-pointing that
now pervades it. It is not progressives or conservatives
who have ruined or are ruining our country, it is the
tendency on so many people to think that their way is
the right way and that people who disagree with them are
bad.
