B. Does this Utopia have specific criteria for entry? If so, please list
the criteria here. (Do not forget to list language(s) spoken.) If not,
please proceed to the next section.
 
  1. People who want to be in this society must be able to convince the Committee that the society is right for them and be able to prove that they will help the society.
  2. People must speak English, or another language that at least one other person in the society speaks, so that there is no communication trouble.  (Once they are fully established in the society, if they speak a language other than English, then they will immediately be taught English, which is the main language of the society.)
  3. People must promise to obey the Commandments.
 
C. What are the specific skills, if any, possessed by the first generation of
citizens in this Utopia?

 

The first generation was very skilled, in a variety of ways.  First, all of them were very extremely intelligent.  Many were creative, thoughtful, patient, and courageous.  Other people in the first generation were scientists, doctors, architects, and teachers.

D. How does your Utopia deal with the concept of race, especially in its inception (beginning)? Does it have only one race? Does it allow mixed race bonds to be formed?
 
In the beginning of the society, the only people in it were Americans, mainly whites.  But as the society gerw and began letting new people join, many different races were in the society.  There were a few problems with race as new people started coming in, but the problems were quickly stopped.  Children were taught at an early stage that race should not influence what you thought of others.  And for the most part, it didn't.  However, if citizens (who are old enough to recognize that it is wrong) chose to discriminate others based on race or religion, or anything else, they are severly punished.  For more information on how members of the society were punished, visit the government section.
