Equality... who is opposed?

Equality... who is opposed?

When we take on an ethical concept like equality, we meet opposition. So who is opposed to equality? It turns out no one, as long it it not being applied to them; everyone when it is being applied to them. Equality cannot fly unless it is attached to reciprocity. It must be universal. So who are the big organizations that are opposed to equality being applied to them? Well, after examination, most organizations want to be "something special" status.

Religions, well the Catholics, Protestants, Muslims, Jews, want to be special. Within their organizations, women hold a special lower place politically. They are a social group to themselves. That is not equality. Political organizations have a special problem. Now they try to boost women up, making men the second class. How well is that working now?

So religions are the principle resistance, although many of them agree that equality is a good thing, yet do not live it within their own organization. So what good is their support, if it is dishonest support? Equality means that religions would need sell their faith to adults, not impose it on children. That is the way of religion, imposing the religion onto children before they can sort real and false, before they have other means of support, before they have learned to reason, before they can reason.

So we see equality is one more reason to abandon organized religions, and even belief systems that are less organized, like Islam. These do not support equality. Any religion that places value on old books is also suspect. It places the book above the thinking of the current population... not realistic but it is the way of religion. No thanks.

So now we see that if we adopt equality as the foundation for our ethics/moral life, we will be at conflict with religions and many social groups. Oh well, life goes on until it does not. It is done. Hail all as equals.
