    Right now I'm not feeling them. The U.S needs to value its own culture before embracing others.

    I agree with you, if the country is in peril due to some unsavory foreigners then it should not be taken lightly!

  • Dear Veena.K,
    When I was very young, I was entranced by other cultures, VERY attracted to experience heritage from all over the world and learn from them all.
    And I did, too.

    Now that I am old, however, to me all that matters is each individual person.

    Oh I so luv your wise words....no exaggeration my friend....each individual regardless of culture maybe good or evil. The innate goodness prevails overall!

  • Depends on the culture.   Sure every culture has their ugly sides but  a few out there are almost entirely ugly IMHO.   I know that's not the "right" thing to say but it's the cold hard truth.

  • Oh trust me there are a lot of  people out there today who will say that it isn't right and that all cultures are equal.

    No culture that destroys its children -or even most of its adults- has a long-term future. We need to reflect upon our own treatment of our dependent and relatively powerless members.

  • Dear Huw,
    This is a remarkable statement - and I agree, very much so.
