As a result, I grew up accustomed to a relatively peaceful coexistence between people of various religious backgrounds. This did not make me blind to the fact that religious animosity exists even in areas of diversity, but it does contribute to my initial surprise whenever I encounter one of these instances.
I am glad that the community board approved the plan in the end. In such a diverse country, the citizens should work to understand each other and their cultures and most of all, to accept other’s freedom to practice their own religion.
