What happens if two cultures or nations disagree? When two cultures or nations disagree they usually end up going to war. Can one nation or culture apply rules for all others to follow? Yes definitely, its done all the time. What about the issues of human rights? People can so easily take away your human rights. Can the international community hold honor killings as a human rights crime even though one nation or culture doesnt? Yes because I dont believe that its right to kill someone just because of culture. Should there be internationally accepted rules regarding human rights regardless of culture? Yes because whats right is right and whats wrong is wrong screw the culture. What about the wearing of clothing or the rights of women in different cultures? Yeah that whole veil and turban thing its stupid but w/e. I believe that every woman should have the same rights as males, everywhere but thats just my opinion. Does multiculturalism mean there should be many diverse perspectives of one commonly accepted one? I mean it would be great just to have one commonly accepted one but then that would be boring in the sense of music, dance, food, the language.


 I agree with how said that human rights are taken away quite easily Jenna. A question for you though would be when was one instance where a nation made rules for another to follow? I also think that it's true in what you said about it not being right for another to take someone's life due to culture. Having to witness a family member die just because of culture would be quite painful. cry But anyways, good job Jenna. ^.^
