Cultural tolerance 'is not enough,' says EU culture commissioner

* The mothers of social engineering have it all worked out, the faceless EU-aparatchiks are bringing you the “inter-cultural society” circus:

Brussels (dpa) – Tolerance of different cultures is no longer enough: Europeans should create an “inter-cultural society” in which interaction across cultural boundaries is the norm, the European Union’s top cultural official said Friday.

“We want to go beyond multi-cultural societies, where cultures and cultural groups simply coexist side by side: mere tolerance is not enough any more,” the EU’s Commissioner for Education, Training, Culture and Youth, Jan Figel, said ahead of the official launch of the European Year of Inter-cultural Dialogue 2008.

“We need to give an impulse for a true metamorphosis in our societies, so that we can create an inter-cultural Europe where cultures exchange and interact constructively,” he said.

On Tuesday, top EU officials are set to launch the Year of Inter- cultural Dialogue at a ceremony in Slovenia, the country which currently holds the EU’s six-month rotating presidency.

UN Favoritism Towards Muslim Refugees

by Baron Bodissey

Why not give Christians who are escaping from Islam a place at the front of the refugee queue?

Christian immigrants, even from such countries as Nigeria or Pakistan, would be much more likely to assimilate fully and pursue gainful employment in the West than their Muslim counterparts. There is a political advantage to be gained here, since anyone who favors giving them preference could not reasonably be termed a “racist” or a “neo-Nazi”.

Western society would benefit from a modest influx of such people, assuming that Muslim immigration could be simultaneously reduced.
