(oh wait. That has happened)

Let's hope not. Imagine you could only eat one thing. No spices. No salt or pepper. Think of all the wonderful flavors you would miss out on. Same with people. If we separate then we miss out on all the friends and experiences we could have had. Variety IS the spice of life. Remember, an anthem is simply a song that holds significance for a group of people. Like hymn, not everyone sees its importance. But for a religious group it can hold special meaning. Same with any song.
