Ideal08,
You ain't never spoke a truer word. (That's just something my granny always says that essentially means AMEN. But, I digress.) A huge problem in this country is sort of a refusal to recognize differences and then, what's worse, to pervert those differences as to illustrate the superiority of one thing over the other.
If everyone could just learn to accept that there we are all different, in the
Greek community as well as in the community at large, and that as you said it's okay, we would be able to begin resolving many deep-seated issues that this nation has.
We are different, let's celebrate that. Let's not efface our differences for the sake of "unity". Unity if it is true, will recognize those differences, those strengths, and understand that they make the whole stronger.
I just restated your whole post, but I just felt that it was something that needed to be reiterated. I really have nothing to say towards the original post, because I am not Greek and can not speak to the way different orgs are run.
