It is comprehensible that you make such a wish. I have ever cheriched the same wish. However, in realtiy, the cultural difference often alienate us from each other rather than bring us closer. It is easy to say that we should learn to respect and tolearate each other but hard to do.  I am not sure where you are living. If you are still in USA, perhaps you understand better that the cultural differences often turned into racial prejudice. America claimed that its "melting pot" functions well. The fact is that there are various stereotypes against people from different cultures and religion.

Have you ever seen the Oscar Best Motion Picture " Crash"? This theme featured in the movie resonate millions of minority groups in USA. In LA city, (a concentration city of immigrants), people share different cultural and religious beliefs. The cultural differences lead to numerous conflicts. The cultural differences usually make people intolerant and ego-centric.  So, Madame, your idea doesn't work well in the real world.[/quote]
