What would be the lowest score with 9 strikes and no gutter balls?

My first pass results in 135:

X X 11 X X 11 X X 11 XXX

Which is pretty lousy for that many strikes, but better than any game I’ve ever bowled. I don't see how you could get a lower score under the specified parameters, since any rearrangement would result in more turkeys than just the one in the last frame.

From an axiology/value theory point of view, how can one say that a diverse society is better than a uniform one, especially given the negative effects of diversity (racism, sectarian conflict, problems arising from extreme cultural relativism)?
