I agree if you mean differences that don't count in terms of morals,
peacefulness, and the like. After all, if one individual (or group) is
just a (pack of) murderer(s), bandit(s), rapist(s), and generally not
nice, then I think I'd rather not celebrate her/his/its (their)
difference. At _best_, I might tolerate it -- kind of how I feel about
the governments of the world now; I'm in no position to do much more
about them -- but not have festivals and parades for it.:)
Later!
