The British culture/heritage is a such a melting pot of so many other diverse cultures with changes occurring to it over such a long period of time. Ultimately it will continue to change and evolve further and people will simply have to decide how much energy they're prepared to waste getting flustered/annoyed/worried/scared by such an irresistible force. Will there be setbacks in progress in some areas? Of course, will the general progression be for the overwhelming good? I suspect so. it hasn't harmed us so far. |

Re: British culture
I look forward to Sharia law and all of the positives it brings.
There, it's now been said (instead of 4 pages circling the subject) . . so shoot me :p: |
Re: British culture
British Culture is fast becoming one of self flagellation, looking into the past and judging our actions by todays standards and then demanding that we apologise and are shamed by it.

Multi-culture is an interesting diversion. Let's take two examples that have similarities but also stark differences: 1 The Muslims They derive their culture from centuries of imbuement in the Koran. When you read the Koran, its touch points on British culture are pretty much zero. There is a 90%+ uptake of the religion by British Muslim children. At the extreme end of Islam are the Iranians, Jihadists and so on. There will be many British Muslims who have absorbed a considerable amount of British culture, but it is my perception that most of them remain governed by Islam. 2 The Jews They derive their culture from the Old Testament, which is 50% (sort of) of the Christian influence. British Jews have integrated well into British culture and I'm sure the leakage of belief into atheism is not much different from British Christians. At the extreme end of Judaism are the Ultras who pretty-much bubble themselves into their mini-society. Their culture is based on the teachings of a particular past Rabbi in Eastern Europe. One thing the British ultras don't do is Jihad and all the terror that brings. |

I'm deliberately ignoring your mildly disturbing attempts to push the thread towards the eulogising or denigrating of certain religious and cultural tropes. I don't think you've set your stall out nearly well enough for that to be fruitful at this stage. And your talk of 'subliminal' seems to be a fairly transparent attempt to avoid defining your meaning and intent. Sure, average people most of the time don't consciously think about what their culture is, but this is a discussion forum, discussing culture, at your own invitation. So please stop avoiding the question. |

Re: British culture
Point of information - the throwing off of buildings was in Syria by Islamic State, an Islamic terrorist group.
I disagree with the way Saudia Arabia treats it's people, but they didn't do that. Christian Pastors in the USA praised an anti-gay massacre, but I don't blame the US Government (or the US people) for that... |

the ideas, customs, and social behaviour of a particular people or society. You can't detail that as not only would the list be very long, the variants come into play and very few people would be able to contribute at that level in this debate. However, since you've tried to force the point, I believe that British culture is under threat in so far as if the birth rate of an incompatible culture reaches a critical mass, laws will change as that culture asserts itself.
