Could Ethnic & Cultural Diversity Really Survive & Thrive?

Could Cultural & Ethnic Diversity Really Survive And Thrive For All Time?

Tonight after watching a documentary on the history channel-13, about the history of Islam-Christianity & Judaism. How these religious belief's converts struggled to live side by side. And how they fought against each other for space, livelihood, and personal safety for centuries.

Even to this day globally, this religious diversity is threatened once again primarily in the middle eastern hemisphere. And I ask myself the question which the title of this article above states. But is amazed at the continuation of these social-religious and political struggles. Some of which purport or promote violence, Jihad, and martyrdom, for those who are gullible enough to get on board once more.

And I realize that this current phenomenon is just a replay of what has occurred centuries ago, and will probably continue for as long as humans occupy this planet. Which I believe is part of the drama or experiences that us humans must face. As we continue to grow, develop, and adapt to our continually changing social, intellectual, political, and economic environments.
