The mere fact that governments have such close ties with religion is a real problem. As an example Zuma says the ANC will rule until Jesus second coming, WTF? How can an organization such as theirs be tied to what is essentially a 'white' religion? I don't believe that segregation in an inherent human condition. I think it's something we've learnt. There's a quote from the Zeitgeist movie that I love: There is no such thing as human behaviour, only human conditioning. As for Canada's school for blacks only, maybe they're worried Brendan Huntley will attack them. yup, its crazy, Chatsubo.

Toronto, Canada, has introduced a school specifically for black students: http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20080129/black_focused_school/20080129?hub=TopStories You do hit a point that I've been musing about. It seems that segregation is some kind of inherent basic human condition. Especially when mentioning religious segregation... whole countries are formed by it. I've noted lately the flaring up of the religion in schools debate, having heard it being debated on radio and online... http://www.skeptic.co.za/content/view/215/1/ From what I can gather, lots of religious folk insist that their own viewpoint should be promoted in schools at the exclusion of others. Then very rapidly boils to the surface the idea of having separate schools based on secular beliefs, Ie. leave us alone to have our own schools! This is just another form of petty apartheid, no? Albeit self inflicted. That's why it seems to start distilling, to me, that people want to be separated from anyone of a different arbitrary viewpoint/ethnicity/heritage/etc to theirs. There seems to be a fear of having your own values/viewpoints diluted when allowing yourself to be "influenced" by others. Now some of us would say that's a good thing. However you can't help but notice the vast majority kicking and screaming when the prospect rears it's head. (Xenophobia anyone?) Here’s one that boggled me….
