Unity Not Uniformity

Chuck,
You say:
"I will confess that unity makes me nervous. When people talk about unity
they speak as if they imagine a large tent with people holding hands when in
reality it usually means unhappy people in brown shirts marching off to the
book burning."
That's because you do not see the difference between unity and uniformity. Uniformity is fascism, nazism, and so on. Unity is universal brotherhood, which preserves and enhances diversity.
For instance, there is unity between a human couple, yet not uniformity, thanks to good karma.
Long life to the difference in unity, which creates LIFE,
Carlos.
