Multiculturalism is here to stay

This site asks how we can live harmoniously in a Multicultural environment and to bring awareness to problems facing people of mixed backgrounds and cultural traditions.

This twenty first century has the knowledge explosion, due to incredible advances in science and the Internet, which allows everyone to research all of our traditions and beliefs.

Human beings now have the possibility to solve and understand so much more than early Philosophers and Theologians who had only the knowledge of their previous era's.

Every year we learn more how to put an end to hunger, war, famine and even global warming! Our collective intelligence can make it all possible! We are living in a new Era! We must validate our traditions and bring them into the 21st century!

On Planet Earth we have around 4,200 religions and 6,809 languages which reflect every historical culture, therefore it is most important that we make an effort to learn about each other so that we will understand each other's customs and culture in order to live in harmony in this dynamic multicultural environment which is here to stay.

Most of the 195 Countries of the world are no longer homogenous and eventually every country will have a huge variety of cultures and religions just as has Europe, Australia, USA, Canada and every country that offers survival and future economic advancement. Planning to adjust to massive migration will be the new imperative.

Please take the time and trouble to study the culture and beliefs of others so as to build understanding about the cultural background of our neighbours so that we can become friends.

Black, white, yellow or bits of everything, we are the same species and share this Planet Earth together and will share our future fate together!

Collective knowledge from all around the world can make it all possible. Every human being has knowledge that can contribute to understanding. This Internet age has the perfect tools to achieve this.

It is the duty of the human race to live our lives without prejudice to others who have beliefs that are different to our own. Only then we will earn the respect of each other!

Immigrants settling into a city suburb tend to look for people who have the same ethnic background. It is tempting but bad for your children and bad for your host country and they will end up living in a ghetto. Integration is the key to a happy and prosperous future! Not segregation!

The population of this Planet Earth is in excess of 8.4 billion so we have enough intellectual human resources to work out every detail to make life on this Planet Earth continue harmoniously.

This twenty first century is blessed by a knowledge and communication revolution. When people make the effort to engage with other cultures and religions, it brings understanding. Understanding leads to acceptance. We will find that we have more to agree upon than to disagree upon.

Biblical fundamentalist or traditional assumptions of a three-tiered universe, where God dwells somewhere beyond the sky, that human life was created from nothing and that Jesus was the divine saviour who entered human history through a virgin birth and that life started 6,500 years ago from two people called Adam and Eve, belong to a bygone era where mythology was a valid way to communicate a message. The assumption that the death of Jesus was required by God in such a vicarious sacrifice is impossible for young informed minds to accept. Human sacrifice is abhorrent in this new era.

Religion should be dynamic, democratic, truthful and logical! Science and religion should always work as an integrated part of life so that Holy Scriptures are interpreted through modern perceptions and not by past philosophies. Religion should always be in step with modernity. This would save the three main religions from embarrassment due to such moments in history as the fate of poor Galileo, and Giordano Bruno.
