Thread Name: How to End Racism
Subject: RE: How to End Racism
Returning to the point of the thread, i think the important thing is that people share the same goal. But often we differ on how to get there.

My opinion is that some sort of harmony and tolerance can only be achieved through mutually respecting each others respective boundaries, culture, identity and rights, but all the latter must be seperate from each others respectively.

I believe in respecting the rights of Muslims to engage in their own faith as they see wish, but they should engage that faith and all its consequences in their own society, and not ours.

Again, we should not try to impose our values, such as the case of the US and UK illegally entering Iraq in an evil war that cost innocent lives on both sides.

Many people believe in tolerance through respecting each others rights individally but seperatly, some believe that tolerance can only be achieved through a more multi-cultural society.

I think time will tell which model is accurate.
