diversity is not always a good thing.
More diversity is not always better, the only ones that think so are pc-nazis or pc-sheep. Areas such as law, dress codes at work (or rules in general at the work place) should not be altered to accommodated someone from a different culture. If a person from a different culture moves to the United States they should have to adapt to our culture. They can dress however they desire, but a place of work should never have to accommodate for a person's particular religion and/or culture. If a place of work has a certain dress code, you should not be able to break that dress code because you believe Allah made the universe instead of The Big Bang or Jesus's dad.
For example, what if a person's religious belief was to kill their own first-born child at the age of 5?
Should we adapt our laws to accommodate the act of murder for a person's religion? Like Islamic culture may be 'sacred' to Muslims, so is the American culture and legal system for many who live in America. Respect is a two-way street, if someone doesn't want to respect the American culture and our justice system, why are we obligated to respect theirs? Not only this, but if Islamic culture and Sharia law are so great, why don't they live in a country that can better accommodate them?
I believe that the main reason we are getting softer towards multiculturalism is because of the rise of atheism. Many atheists tend to be pc-nazis—spreading ideas like: 'more diversity is better' and 'we must respect the values and cultures of others, regardless of what they are'. Atheists need to be as firm towards Islam as they are toward Christianity—atheists seemingly have little problem going after Christians when they become too imposing—why are many atheists giving Muslims a free ride? Obviously not all atheists are okay with Muslims building the NYC Mosque (I would say the majority are, however). For example, many atheists believe that the most-open minded position is always the best (so open that their brains fall out). The question about the NYC Mosque is not the 'what?', but the 'why?'. Why do certain Muslims want this building built so badly in that particular swore-spot? To inflict pain and pump-up their egos of course.
Now, of course, not all Muslims support the building of the NYC Mosque—some are able to have empathy towards the victims of 9/11 and understand why building an Islamic building near the site is not polite. The same is true that not all Muslims want to impose their way of doing things on America, many have adapted to our culture and like it. My beef is not with Muslims, but with the minority (any minority) trying to force the majority to bow to them.
