Phhhhhbbbt!
<<And people still figure I post these things because I agree with

often post such specifically because I disagree?>>

Community defines a quality of "sameness", if only on the simple score
of, "He's one of us!" Diversity defines qualities in which identities
are not the same, and are thus "other".
This is a direct comparison to the basic characters of thought:
similarities, differences, and identities. Raise any one of the
triumvirate out of proportion (and that proportion interestingly
enough is often culturally defined), and you start to define insanity.
Its a balance. Too much one side, not enough the other and you have a
tight knit even fanaticly zealous community. The other way you have a
bunch of lonely folks.
