The military has done it for years-NCClubs and Officer Clubs. Each of you shows "personal favoritism in treatment" among the people you call your close friends.

Well, the acceptability of wrong in two forms; obvious or overt discrimination, and subtle or covert discrimination. You don't see much obvious discrimination today.

And to some degree it has been successful. But subtle discrimination is a very difficult thing to eliminate. It's difficult because everyone does it - everyone. Each of us has. does and probably will continue to some degree to discriminate because of race, religion, sex or national origin. Because everyone does it, certainly doesn't make it right.

We say and do things that are discriminatory without knowing it. Without knowing it. That's where most of the problem lies, lack of knowledge. The more you know about people around you, the easier it is to accept them for what they really are-- a person. When you look at everyone as a person and know them as a person, then you can intelligently make a "distinction" about them. But base that distinction on who and what they are. not something over which they had no control. Such as race or sex. Don't judge another just because they are different from you.
