Multiculturalism Destroys A Nation

There are several things that define what a nation is.  First and foremost, a nation is a group of people (not land or physical borders).  Because of this, culture is a huge part of what defines a nation.  For instance, in America, our nation is founded on a culture of "rugged individualism", freedom, entrepreneurship, and so forth.  Our Constitution is built on those ideas, built on the culture that became America.
Every year there is a video I show in my public school classes called "Overview of America".

While I am not a member of the John Birch Society, or hold to a lot of it's beliefs, this is a good summary of American Culture.
The Bible talks about the idea of multiculturalism.  In the book of Daniel, King  Nebuchadnezzar has a dream about a statue of four metals.  The four metals represent four great empires that would relate directly to the nation of Israel: Babylon (gold), Medo-Persia (silver), Greece (bronze), and Rome (iron).  In that dream, the toes were part iron and part clay and Daniel tells Nebuchadnezzar:
"40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.  41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. 42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken. 43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay." Daniel 2:40-43
Daniel is essentially telling Nebuchadnezzar that the Roman Empire would have strength to it and indeed it did.  It's army conquered much of the known world and left its mark on the world for a thousand years.  But it would also be partly weak because "iron does not mix with clay".  This is multiculturalism.  You see, the Romans would conquer nations but would leave them their culture so long as they paid taxes and let the Romans build their roads.  This multiculturalism divided the Empire, weakened it from within, and eventually lead to its downfall.  They were constantly having to put down rebellions such as the Jewish Wars of 66-73.
In contrast, nations which have solidified themselves as a single nation with a single culture have lasted far longer.  China and Japan are great examples of this.  While they have undergone regime/dynasty changes over the centuries, their singular cultures have allowed them to remain China and Japan for far longer than Rome ever dreamed of.
Here in America, our culture used to be that of a melting pot.  What that meant was that we would accept immigrants from all nations, take the best of their culture and make it part of American culture, and drop the worst of their culture.  We became a singular culture through the best the cultures of the world had to offer.  However, we lost that in the mid-20th Century.  Through various intentional maneuvers by politics and the media, we went from a melting pot - a single alloy with all the best properties, to a mixing pot where we can be easily divided because we never truly become singular.  We are hyphenated-Americans now: African-American, Asian-American, Latino-American and that division is destroying the greatest nation to ever have existed from within, just the way that Rome fell.
When I was going through my alternative certification training, one of the final questions they asked for my class was how I would promote multiculturalism in my classroom.  I responded that I wouldn't.  I would promote American culture because MC is inherently destructive.  If people want to retain their individual cultures, they can go be part of that nation.  If they want to be part of America, then they need to become American and take part in American culture.
Leave the hyphen where they came from.
In Truth and Love.
