Intermarriage

[loseyourname]

What do you guys think? Let us go beyond Armenians for a while. Should people of any race intermarry? Is it healthy to introduce a little additional variability into the gene pool, or should we simply attempt to remain as racially pure as is possible? Is southern California here the bane of the world with its racial homogenizing, or is it a wonderful place where people of diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds can come together and fall in love?

Oh gee, it sounds like we are really trying to make John Lennon's IMAGINE work here.

I just want to talk, my friend. I am not creating anything. I get the feeling I'm the only multiracial person here, or at least the only one that posts frequently.

Well no one is "pure" really, so God knows who my great great great great great ancestor was.

In any event, you can look at Souther California both with its great things and its bad things. As the world becomes more interconnected, people will mix more and more, however I feel forced "diversity" is a dangerous thing, for those that advocate for "diversity" don't realize that the diversity they advocate essentially wipes out diversity. I don't want a world where everyone looks alike and talks alike and thinks alike, but that is more and more towards where society is headed, as that would be in accordance with the Ancient Mysteries of globalization.

Intermarriage is not in promotion of diversity. It will eventually lead to a single race of hybridized people that are very strong genetically but all look relatively similar and have little in terms of a distinct ethnic identity. The only culture left will be geographic and differentiated as well by shared tastes.

intermarriage is not easy. it can lead to a lot of problems such as having/practicing different traditions, having a different religion, etc. its not like in the movies and it can definitely be a big deal.
just my opinion

Marriage isn't easy, period. Loving someone isn't easy.

So much for "diversity". Mix everyone and make them alike more and more subservient since differences mean more dissension.

Control the outcome, and you get your desired results, and that is how you control thought.

I'm sorry I don't share in your view of hybridization, which is no different than a mixed dog with little to no abilities aside from dumpster diving.

What do you mean you don't share my view? You said exactly the same thing I did. You have exactly the same view as me.
