Multi-Racial Unions in the Extreme

I read an article recently that stated that there is a rise of inter-racial marriages in the US. Although there is no sin in inter-racial marriages, no ethical or moral prohibition against such marriages, I am still left to ponder the wide scale results of such marriages if it were suddenly the case that everybody everywhere were to do it.

I awoke this morning to the glorious sound of numerous birds greeting the new day with beautiful song. Each species has its own unique melody. Each has it own unique attributes. No two species of bird are the same. All are birds to be sure, but each has its own colors, form, behavior and song. There are thousands of species of bird and each is an expression of a limitless creative genius.

Now I understand that it is possible that birds species could cross breed if they were somehow moved to do so, but it is something that rarely, if ever happens in nature. Each is programmed to breed with its own thus preserving the uniqueness of the species. If there were suddenly to be a massive cross breeding within the bird kingdom the uniqueness of each individual species would ultimately be watered down and made muddy brown as happens when we mix all the primary colors together.

It seems to me that although there have been beautiful babies made as a result of cross-race unions, in the end the question comes down to whether we want to preserve the races as they are, or lose the beautiful uniqueness of each race. Personally, I love the uniqueness and variety of the birds in my yard. The diversity of color and song are magical. It would become boring to observe the same brown bird singing the same song where ever I went in the world.
