Yellow space Green space Blue Space... Just Space

Okay, there is a theory that goes something like this...

Church or Xy has it's own culture (Blue space) and a non Xn person is part of a different culture like a skater or rave culture (Yellow space) and if we want them to be a part of church we need to create a Green space for them.

I don't think this is true. I think for them most part everyone in a western society lives in multicoloured spaces. They are skaters and they go to raves, they are business people and they go surfing. What is more they don't consider any of those things exclusive that is, you can be a raver and a surfer.

Rather than think how do we make a Green space for the Yellow people. We need to think how do we create a Blue Space that in no way exclusive enough to eliminate the possibility of also being in other spaces simultaneously. A space that multicoloured people - if you like - can be a part of, because the reality is we a re not a culture made of lots of different coloured (cultured) people. We are a culture made up of multi coloured (cultured) people.
