A Deleted Comment

__________ has left a new comment on your post "Après London-LFG and a Merkin Parcel": 
"LFG’s friends are so diverse and I love it. Her gang is akin to the United Nations-in ethnic diversity only..."
Are there any societies now, or have there ever been any historically, where increased "diversity" created increased social harmony? "No" and "no" are the correct answers.
As one writer put it "conspicuous racial or cultural diversity in a single society is not a blessing, but a problem...."

Other than all the spam that everyone is getting-I bet I’ve only rejected four comments in the almost year that I’ve been creating this drivel. I wasted no time rejecting the above comment but then simply decided to post about it.

I’m no great intellect and certainly am not up on the latest research regarding the merits or deficits of racially diverse societies. I had no black or brown friends when I was a little kid. I grew up in the racially segregated South. All I know is that I am happy that LFG lives in a world where friendship is based on things other than skin color or ones country of origin.

Onward. Harmoniously. ADCracker
