here is my brilliant idea:
everyone should be able to choose their culture. well, bits of their culture. for example, if you're born a french catholic and you want to celebrate mexican holidays and be adept in italian cooking and practice buddhism and live in an igloo, nothing is wrong with that. i think a lot of people's unhappiness comes from sticking with their family culture. things would be so much nicer if you could pick bits and pieces from other cultures just because you like them. there would be so much more variety that way, and everyone could pick exactly what they wanted to be. the idea of separation and race would fade away to make way for the concept of individuality and oneness. for example, if i got to pick i would eat only indian and french food and have a quinceanera instead of a bat mitzvah and wear brittish 60's clothing and join a gospel choir.

sounds like a plan! yeah, i don't even know what my family culture is really... im like welsh or something. not really a lot of fun, but if i got to pick my culture... endless possibilities
defs. my family used to do something like that. we decided that we would celebrate one holiday a year from a different culture(as the only one we already celebrate is solstice). but after trying out passover, i don't think we did any more. we just didn't have time. but i'd like to start again.
ha...i have this idea that we should take the best part of each religioun (THE FOOD) and make it its own religion. the religioun is called foodism. amyone wanna join? ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS EAT THE MOST AMAZING FOODS!!!!!
but yea, i deffinetely like that idea. id be very eye opening....
