We are not and we never were. The world is full of thin people, thick people, tall people, short people and the list goes on.

It not politics that kills unity. People kill unity. The trouble arises when someone wants to be "right" when there isn't a "right". There are different views and different ways of looking at and examining things.

Sure, unity is great but we can't always be united and it's OK to discuss things if we can do that in a respectful way.
