Ah, America the Beautiful!

A great example of the richness that comes from a mixture of cultures and ideas.

Not sure if he was thinking in terms of America. Perhaps he was thinking in terms of the diversity of the world and an appreciation of it.

Yep. Be sure to use that tired ol' buzzword "richness". What good is the word culture without the word "rich" preceding it? Repeat it every day like a mantra.

I'm a former Baha'i myself, now a Christian again.

There is still a lot I love about the faith, but it's people like the author who soured me on it. At some point for many people in the Baha'i community, the goal became diversity rather than unity, and it began to feel like I was part of a leftist political movement rather than a religion.
