point taken, but this is the only thread i’ve ever done that lasted more than a day without sinkin like a stone! :laugh_at: Admittedly, i perhaps made the title a lil confrontational… 😉
I think this test echoes your point that almost everyone discriminates against someone, in that you might survive the race test, but then there is the gender test, the sexuality test, the disability test, the ‘fattist’ test and on and on.
And therefore ‘let he/she that is without sin (prejudice) cast the first stone’…
Not that i’m sayin racism is acceptable, but its not an easy problem to address without being extremely careful about some being more equal than others, because to renounce one form of prejudice, without addressing all such issues is surely folly…
For example, to relate this to another thread, we are all familiar with the Nazi atrocities in the concentration camps in WW2, but we might also reflect that a ‘just’ war was fought by the US (with segregated army units, and a deeply racist domestic policy) and the UK (which had horrendous policies in place in, for example, Australia, against the ‘subhuman’ aboriginals, and who had famously invented the concentration camp 40 years before, in the Boer War).
We should always be very careful about assuming we have the moral high ground.
