I doubt I would put pre-Christian Japan into the list of nations I would like to emulate any more than Sparta.

Name one homosexual accepting culture you would like to emulate.

I do have to give the Jews race kudos for durability. While you are doing your research, seek out the percentage of the citizens of Israel who are not practicing jews. It is the jewish race that is durable. The jewish religon has been carried along in the draft.

I'm sure you will note that the bloodlines of ancient Persia, Babylon, and Rome still exist. But Babylonia, Persia, and Rome don't exist and never will because their culture is gone.

Israel is there not because the Jewish bloodline endured, but because the Jewish culture endured. The Jewish culture endured because, as Tevye said, of their traditions, which were given to them by G-d.

I would like to emulate Rome, but up until the point that it became a savage tribute to the worst in men. Surprisingly, that happened about the same time it began to accept homosexuality.

I can't blame homosexuality for Rome's turning savage. I think both have the same root cause.

Shalom.
