Human nature being what it is has never really allowed harmony and good will to one another.--Eventually if all the races mix and we all end up approximately the same colour with similar features harmony might be achieved. Could take several thousand years though.----or more. Just tribal now.--Just look at all those fiercely competitive games we play. Substitute for going to war. Lol.--- Mind you, some mini wars do erupt at the end of some of them.-- |

This will never happen. Regardless of the uniformity of the human race, there will always be something to debate and disagree about. For example, is the correct term clipping, absorbing or something altogether different when applied to DC? Uniformity of the human race could not possibly be allowed to get in the way of the settling such important matters. |

My last sentence? Can we ever expect to be once again a constituent and singular part of the human race? And stop all this splintering divisiveness? 'Constituent'? 'Singular'? Of course. One part of the whole with definable characteristics and objectives. Size, features and colour being irrelevant in any analysis.

Not to be pedantic Jon, but my dictionary has it as:
Singular: Extraordinary, remarkable, uncommon, unconventional, not customary or usual. The poetic tradition sees it as the unique differences to a greater or lesser degree between all comparators making up the whole. Source: Webster's Comprehensive Dictionary of the English Language 1996!

About time this thread was closed, It is no longer about "Illegal Immigrants" crossing the Channel.
It is now a Thread about Grammar and which word is or is not used in the correct tense/way. This may have started when I was pulled up by a member for using the word "Influx in what he determined was the wrong context. So Mods please close it.
