Diversity

Diversity is an important aspect of surviving and thriving societies; it is inevitable and should bring with it pluralistic attitudes towards beliefs, cultures, and traditions.

Diversity is natural.

We human beings are a diverse bunch, but diversity is also unnatural; we humans are a tribal and a fearful bunch.  We group ourselves according to backgrounds, skin color, beliefs, gender, age, occupation, pain, politics, pleasure, families and comfort.  We shouldn’t do these things because these things do not matter.

The true diversity in the world, the diversity that matters, the diversity that allows us to progress through the dark times of fear and greed is that diversity which brings us together; it is that diversity that reminds us that there is only one group of human beings and that we depend upon one another and always have.

All other differences pale in importance.
