I care much more about a person's personality then their ancestral origin. I'm "part" German, but I don't view myself as a German because thats not where I'm from or where I live. I know somebody who lives here in the Netherlands who's parents are from Suriname, but he was born here in the Netherlands. However, he says he doesn't view himself as Dutch, even though he's never even been to Suriname,
Thats also what irks me when certain groups like islamic families only want their children to go to islamic schools. I personally think islamic schools, like any religion or ehtnic specific educational systems should be banned. Nót because I want to take away their freedom, but because in the long run it will improve our society if we all live and learn together. Thats what I think people in all society's and cultures should strife for.
