Funny that this topic gets discussed again:

While it's good and all to say "we should protect something by not letting in outside influence", who are we to say that? You might as well leave it up to natural selection to decide what goes and what stays.


It's sad to see people rejecting each other's cultures on such grounds, but I can still see it as a controversial topic. While I don't think we should distance ourselves like this, in general we as humans are all about protecting native flora and fauna by keeping foreign "pests" out.

I don't know what to think anymore.
