'''Multiculturalism''' is the "belief that a society should respect and promote all the various [[culture]]s or ethnic groups of which it is composed."<ref>''The American Heritage Dictionary, 2nd edition'', cited in Jordan, T.J.

The debate over multiculturalism often emerges in discussions over [[immigration]], [[political correctness]], and national language, and the concept is mostly supported by [[liberal]]s and [[Globalism|globalists]]. Contrary to what they argue, multiculturalism leads to national disunity, weakening, and ultimately, destruction.<ref>Duke, Selwyn (January 19, 2018).

The doctrine of multiculturalism promotes the [[equality]] of all diverse cultures in society under the code word “[[diversity]].” The doctrine’s validity depends upon limiting the definition of culture to [[moral]]ly neutral criteria. The inclusion of morally significant [[sexual]] [[behavior]] in the definition robs multiculturalism of validity by granting legitimacy to [[immoral]] practices. Attempting to fix the problem by excluding some cultures because of their practices (for example [[cannibalism]] or [[slavery]]) contradicts the premise of equality of cultures. Failure to articulate a standard by which to determine which cultures should be included compounds the problem by vesting arbitrary [[authority]] in whoever holds power.<ref name="Lively2009">{{cite book |title=Redeeming the Rainbow: A Christian Response to the "Gay" Agenda |author=[[Scott Lively]] |publisher=Veritas Aeterna Press |place=Springfield, MA |year=2009 |edition=1 (Version 1.1)|chapter=8: Understanding “Gayspeak” |pages=104 |url=http://www.massresistance.org/docs/gen/09b/Redeeming_rainbow}}</ref>
