School Diversity

[Darorinag]

I am not anti-white nor am I anti-Christian, but these private schools feed more propoganda then public schools, I know this by listening to what a lot of the kids I babysit, who all go to private schools, say about other religions and other races.

And what you are saying is NOT propaganda? You're making me laugh. Please. Is this the best you can say? Come now...

yes you do grasp it, but all you basically grasp is the feelings that the author of the particular book feels towards it,so its really not your own feelings..maybe its just me, but I have more feelings and emotions when I hear the stories from someone that has actually lived it.
I agree..I too would send my own kids to an Armenian school if that was available, but what if your only choices where: diverse public school, all white private school, or an all christian private school. which would you choose?

maybe it is just the perception you get from the public school system in LA, since it is such a large city and all...but I grew up in a city made up of only 85000 people,my school consisted of only 1200 students, where the principle knew me by my first name.

That is silly. One can formulate it that the diverse public schools feed more propaganda than the other wones, you know, the same old crap about "equality" and blah blah blah, and "diversity is a strength". In fact, diversity is a weakness. I'll go with either private school or home school.

If diversity was so great, it wouldn't be forced onto people, but since it is, well, there you go, just another political ploy.

I don't see how diversity is forced onto people, I actually think so many people, especially parents, including my own, who are agianst their children making friends and interacting with people of different races and religions.

Diversity is overrated.

Anon:
I feel like I am getting into a debate with my father, he too feels the same way about diversity as you do...that is in no way a bad thing
maybe it(diversity) is something the public school has feed me over the past 12 years, but it is something I am very grateful for...my two best friends are both Vietnamese, one of whom I have attended school with beginning from elementary all the way through high school, and now we are roomates in college ...I just do not wish for my own children to feel that one ethnicity/religion is superior to others..because Yes, as cliche as it may sound, I truly believe in equality

Dan:
I have no intention in getting into an arguement with someone who has already set their mind into believe that White is the supreme race...thus I refuse to reply to your statements..forgive me for being judgemental

anyways...it is already passed 12 on the eastcoast and I am getting sleepy, goodnight and have a HAPPY EASTER this weekend

I meant forced by the political establishment, the State, the media, education. Not parents. After all, "integration" of schools was a forced process under the thumb of the State, let's not forget.

bla bla bla. yes yes, send em so that they'd be fit soldiers for the propaganda war. Diversity is strength. bla bla bla. It's a shame, really.

You're right - and I've got no intentions of getting into an argument with someone who is idiotically "grateful" for diversity. And do me a favour, go die.

Jeez, by the time any of us have kids a lot in the world will change, maybe we won't live where we live now, but if I still lived here I'd send my kids to FHS for sure. I see a bright future for the school even if others don't ahem.

CK are you going to the armens alumni weekend next weekend?

Look kiddo, whoever whined that I was oppressed? the question is not about being oppressed or not. the question is about Armenian schools vs. odar schools. the problem with diversity is that smaller nations run the risk of getting off-balance and mixing two cultures too much that their own culture would be depleted. i don't care about diversity if mixing is not forced upon us by various methods such as the stigma of being racist if one is going to an all-white or all-Christian school.
