Is it better to expose yourself to as much diversity as possible or live in ignorant bliss?

Expose yourself by all means...just not in public.  Seriously though, we only evolve through exposure to diversity.

Actually that is somewhat true, but truly do not waste energy thinking about it, it will drive you mad, it is best to see how to help evolve man into one entity unified through unconditional acceptance of others differences. If we do not learn this soon we will find ourselves being exterminated or at least our numbers dimished.

oh my god - yes it is!   You will never meet such a diverse bunch of people anywhere else.  At work you would probably have similar ideas to a lot of people but in the playground - anything goes!!

If English is a second language you already have a lot of diversity going for you.   Just describe your live.

You need to dumb down your questions if you want the multi-racialists to notice and get enraged.  Afterall the multi-culturalists and pro-miscegenationists don't understand big words like miscegenation.\n\nAnd no you should not engage in miscegenation.  There are lots of white guys like me who aren't aren't too keen girls who have done that previous to meeting them.  Many of them are far too forgiving of this, but not I.  \n\nIf you consider it akin to beastiality can you really forgive it so lightly?  I cannot.

I loved these articles by Walter Williams (Professor of Economics).  He states exactly how I feel about affirmative action way more eloquently than I ever could.  You should give them a read, if you really value diversity and are open minded, then you might find them interesting.

You should never *have* to separate yourself, whether you look similar to others or different. People just need to learn to get past their prejudices, but it'll be easier if differences aren't forced on them. Just go on with your daily routine as if nothing about your life is different, and deal with what comes. Be honest with yourself.

I've heard ignorance is bliss, maybe that has something to do with it.

i think were "proud" about how diverse we are and it doesnt create as much violence or problems anymore. i think there are places that are seperate but thats because you feel more comfortable with people more like you, it shouldnt be a problem.

It depends on what you value. If you are looking for diversity and opportunity then the US-although not in the South or the ghetto :D. But the US is also morally decaying so I'd stay away. Go to Norway or Switzerland or England, they all have very forward-thinking leadership but also high taxes. And also the US has too many stupid people who debate things like evolution, abortion, and gay-marriage-which should all be allowed and stated as fact. In the US because still debate these issues which is ridiculous. Im from NJ so its not like Im hating :D

Our diversity (religious/cultural kind) has definitely added vibrancy to our country and India can definitely claim to be the most diverse of all countries with the each culture respected, something which many of our distinguished "developed" nations cannot claim (case in point US, UK, Australia). But in the last couple of decades many narrow minded people have made use of this diversity  for the wrong reasons to create a further divide among our people. I wouldn't say diversity has helped our nation or deconstructed it per se but has a hand in both. At the end of the day it is up to the common man to rise the above all the divisions and see that he, like others, is an Indian first.\n\nThe other diversity (socio-economic kind) is more man made and this gap between the have and have-nots is something of a worry and must be bridged really soon to the extent that the have-nots at least have something. In this day of cut throat competition and dog-eat-dog world it is going to be really tough to stop and spare a thought for the socio-economic conditions of another person but if not looked at this can definitely lead to the deconstruction of our society and our nation.\n\nAlthough i have not proposed anything i am open for discussion.

I appreciate diversity because I think that we can all learn from other people who are not like ourselves if it is positive. I do not appreciate people who have a need to force their beliefs on others with a barrage of negative comments and never offering anything positive. Diversity is wonderful if it is positive and done in a way to bring people together, but diversity can also be used as a wedge to drive people apart.

different levels of knowledge breeds diversity = conflict?\n\nmaybe god wanted his creations to follow a set of imperatives and hence live harmonious lives
