I mean the opposite of a multicultural society, one where everybody has the same culture (I wasnt sure what the correct term is).

maybe, maybe not. It would depend on their reason why - if it was because they felt their race was superior, then yes. If they felt they could have a more harmonious society if everyone understood eachother culturally, then not necessarily.

No, most people do want to live in a monocultural society. And culture is not the same thing is race. It is true that many cultural lines do also run along race lines but their are finer shades as well.

I am white, and ideally I would not like to live with white evangelical christians, with black baptists, asian budhists, hassidic jews, or iranian muslims. This is not because of their race but because we come from very different cultures.

No, I'd consider it culturally supremacist. Culture and race are not the same thing, though they often correlate. But there is not necessarily a mandatory relationship between the two in all cases - except in cultures where a stance on race is part and parcel of the culture.

Well this will indicate that you don't know how to integrate into society.
The christian culture and religion is an arab religion as jesus was an arab, so this means that your the same culture as muslims and jews whether you like it of not.
People have choice. If you feel that you have problems intergrating and adjusting to a mixed backgrounf, then by all means do it.

Strictly speaking, I guess it would be - but if all the people who wanted to live in such a country just got on with it and moved there, wouldn't the people left behind be better off?

Racism is like the evil acts done by America to its black people before recent times,the evil acts done by Isreal to the Palestinians now,the Evil deeds done by europe to the Jewish people in the last centuryetc..

no

i think that we have developed in a certain way and we relate to others who are like us better than people who are diffrent

there are enough idisynchresies between people of one culture that it probably wouldnt be boring.

However i would rather live with ppl who are like me regardless of race or culture

last group of people that wanted that was the Nazis. Anyone differing from the cultures ideal was sent to a concentration camp and exterminated.

So i suppose it boils down to if you believe Hitler's loonies were racist or not....

No, I actually think it would be a good idea. All that in breeding and the accompanying diseases would soon wipe them out and the world would be a better place.
