Having protected classes means having unprotected classes. That in itself is the law not really protecting equally. Furthermore, this whole minority/protected classes smacks far too much of the feudal minority/royalty classes for my liking.It's never right to dispose of other people dignity because you are against what you assume they do as consenting adults in the comforts of their own home. The law is the law because it protects everyone equally. If not it's only a fight for survival and that places everybody in the position of defending themselves by whatever means is necessary
The only trouble most people have with protected classes is that they aren't yet in the situation of being one. Times change, People change and ideals change. We as Christians could very well find ourselves in that position. It is that way in many parts of the world and If we continue to push people away because it suits our own definition of morality we could hasten that reality to our own back doors.
No. The feudal system was set up as a privileged not a right. Having protected classes is a stop gap mechanism and is not meant to be determinant unless the discrepancy that necessitates it is permanent.Having protected classes means having unprotected classes.

Quite the difference between a government fining you for your religion(refusing to bear false witness) vs individuals practicing freedom of association.Yet you claim firing you for what amounts to insubordination is illegal discrimination because of your religion. Reference here.
Are you okay with discrimination or not?
Quite the difference between a government fining you for your religion and such vs individuals practicing freedom of association.
Pretty sure the upper feudal classes considered those things a right. Typically, by birth. That's where we get the term 'birthright'. They had divine right to rule, as well.No. The feudal system was set up as a privileged not a right.

Where do we get this insubordination stuff? I owe no suboridnation to sanctimonious, farcically named "human rights" commissions.It's not "because of your religion" if you engage in insubordination.

Also, you're mingling threads, which is against the rules, and mixing contexts, which is bad form.
The idea of right was more for the privileges classes and that's what they considered themselves. Rights were not thought of back then as they are today since in no way were they universal.Pretty sure the upper feudal classes considered those things a right. Typically, by birth.

Well, my statement was in reference to the committee. Sorry if the other thread got confused and mixed.Refusing to comply with your employer's demands is insubordination. I didn't mention human rights commissions.
Consistency is good form. Have at it though.

Birthrights are a fairly universal phenomenon. They exist in everything from primitive tribal societies to feudal Japan. Either way, whatever privileges we talk about in those classes were thought of as a right by those who held them. They never said "My divine privilege to rule".The idea of right was more for the privileges classes and that's what they considered themselves.

Birthright came from the idea that the 1st male member of the family deserved a double portion. please look up Jacob and Esau on this.
You don't seem to understand that those were the Gentiles as they called themselves were totally dependent on the good will of those who were above you in the hierarchy.Birthrights are a fairly universal phenomenon.

We definitely seem to be talking about different, though overlapping, contexts.You don't seem to understand that those were the Gentiles as they called themselves were totally dependent on the good will of those who were above you in the hierarchy.
There were no rights beyond that which was guaranteed by those above you. The person who ultimately held your fate in his hands was the King.
I think you are talking more along the line of ancestral heritage which is why family crests were developed.
Well I think you are interesting. I've read many of your posts and have agreed with a lot of them. this I think was a little forced by the topic and that makes everthing quasi-toxic. These issues of governments and authority figures trying to please a certain voting block or group always tends to bring out intencity in others. I don't blame anyone for this other tan the entity that shoved the issue down peoples throats.We definitely seem to be talking about different, though overlapping, contexts.
Anyways, fun topic of discussion. Feudal norms have a certain romantic appeal to them, provided we keep it in a sort of whitewashed manner.
