Culture is developed over many centuries. Raise an African baby among Swedish Lutherans, and you will get someone who is culturally a Swedish Lutheran,not an African.

You don't watch Swedish news very often do you?

Well no, I don't. I mean, not living in Sweden or speaking Swedish.

Well I do watch Swedish news. By your own admission you are ignorant of the fact that we have been witnessing "live experiments" for the last few centuries which prove your thesis wrong. Africans in Sweden behave just like Africans do in your own country, just like they do in their own African countries, and just like they do in all the other countries of Europe, as well as Australia. What culture these people are brought up in has little to do with how they behave.

They are being brought up as Africans among other Africans in Sweden, Yes? A lone African, brought up among white Swedish Lutherans alone(my original example) would be, culturally a white Swedish Lutheran.

If you know of an example that disproved what I actually said, I will happily concede the point.

Most Africans in Sweden are raised in the same culture, as evangelicals in the Swedish church or mission church. Some of them are even priests. It's still the same story... rape, robbery, violence, murder. They are overshadowed only because there are so many Arabs committing the same crimes.

Swedish Lutheran clergy of African descent ate committing rape on a large scale? Really?

That should be "are" not "ate".

Okay, dwonthumbing the correction of a typo is just bizarre.

what is all the craze with downthumbing or upthumbing about?

I don't believe most of us care, except there are some circuмstances which are bizarre, uncharitable and, well, not Catholic. Those circuмstances illustrate the mind of the person selecting an up or down; i.e., there are those who will 'thumbs down' quotes from Holy Scripture, or excerpts of papal bulls, the writing of saints, etc.

So you have never expressed an opinion, or even had an opinion, about something happening in a country you haven't lived in?

Not as "infallible" opinion since "infallibility" relies on the opinions of mass-media, credibility of which is not reliable, to say it in the most charitable way.

Does it have any influence on the person's rights or privileges here? nothing about that in the rules, so, I assume, most thumbdowning is usually a childish retaliation on the part of those who feel offended ( rightfully or not - up for discussion).

good question, Jester. I'm new enough to be ignorant of the influence, if any. I'm sure someone smarter than I will let us both know.

In reviewing many threads on this forum, the pattern I see is that the majority of "thumbs downing" is reserved for posts that are contrary to doctrine/dogma, not an emotional reaction to feeling offended. Of course, there are some exceptions, but you'll notice the same pattern as time progresses.
