Do you know of anything relating to exclusion as a result of racial or religious difference?

Ok you don’t seem to be getting many answers so I’ll try to be more helpful.\n\nMany Western governments attempt to reduce discrimination through civil rights and equal opportunity laws and policies like affirmative action.\n\nMost religious discrimination is banned along with discrimination based on race, gender, nationality, etc.  Crimes directed against people on the basis of religion are actually lumped in with “hate crimes”, meaning they are considered more severe because the motivation was based on prejudice as opposed to anger, fear, etc.\n\nLyndon Johnson kicked off the more recent federal protections with Executive Order 11246 in the sixties. It dealt mostly with hiring practices.\n\nOther presidents and legislators have expanded on this. \n\nRegards,\nArmus

Could you be a bit more vague?  What ethnic group?  There are thousands, and you could probably find at least a site, sometimes several, for each.  Start your search with Google.

They've banned major religious symbols in general, I believe, in places such as public schools and government buildings. So a Jewish man can't wear a kippah, Christians can't wear giant crosses, etc. And I think it's to help prevent discrimination in the work place, but I disagree.

If marrying outside your race was wrong, then Abraham, Joseph, Moses, David, Solomon, Esther, Samson to name the majors would all be found guilty. God so loved the "world" that He gave His only Son. It didn't say God so loved the whites only, the chinese only, or what have you. God created blacks and other nationalities in His image and likeness and God said it was good. It's not the color of your skin you should be concerned with, it's the contents and issues in your heart coming out of your mouth. So we might as well get over any inner racist feelings that are rooted down in there because you will have a big problem in God's kingdom where there are multicultures and mixed babies and people all in Christ, made in His image.

Why don't you Yahoo Search or Google this because I don't the average person knows what you're getting at. One thing I'm not going to do is to talk about different races, because everyone is the same inside only a little different\noutside. Do you compretend?

Racism is prejudice stemming from race, while prejudice can be anything from hatred because of sex, sexual orientation, religion, culture or nationality.  The list goes on.  It's best to think of racism as more of a division of prejudice.

there's a passgae in the bible that says "do not be unequally yoked together" (a yoke of oxen=2 oxen that are held together by a wooden harness.  There are some far right wing churches that would translate that to the point of races, when it actually continues to read "with unbelievers". The new testament doesn't really address inter racial marriage to my knowledge.\n\nIn the old testament there are several places that strictly forbid the Isrealites from marrying outside of their race, this was more of a religous reason than anything though.\n\nMost modern churches are very accepting of interracial marriages.

I don't know any good ones specifically but Wikkipedia would be good. Some slaves were allowed to go to church long as there was a sheriff outside the window, making sure the pastor didn't talk abuot freedom or something. Hope this helps! Good luck on your paper.

Racism is the belief that one race is superior to another. Discrimination is an action based on one's racist beliefs. Prejudice is a preconceived notion held about another race. I'm sorry you are being affected adversely because you are different. I share your pain and anger. The best you can do is to rise above the ignorance and culture, educate yourself, and set the example for others to follow.

Very slight differences, but not enough to classify one race as superior or inferior at any event.  For instance, Norwegians tend to be taller than Southern Mexicans, but that has no bearing on anything.  It's pretty much a myth.  It more has to do with genetics from the direct ancestors.  Good question!

Not sure what prejudice towards the poor you can find that compares to that suffered by races, sexes and other groups?  \n\nBut why is it prejudice when some want a solution to groups impovershed.

People all over the world can dislike people who are different.\nDifferent skin tone, language, customs, height or weight.\n\nI am an american, a white american and a male. The USA is a muticultural country. We have people from all over the ethnic and racial spectrum. It took many generations to enact laws to allow all people of color to be equal under our laws.\n\nIt seems to be a human trait to avoid prople who are different...The color of a persons skin seems to be one way to exclude people from other peoples society.\n\nIf a person has something in common with another individual....Education, sports, entertainment or family values, then the color differences will disappear. That has been the case in the USA. People are not born lazy, white or black....They are not born less intelligent, white or Brown. They are not born viloent, Yellow or white skin.\n\nSocial conditions dertermine a person's behavior in many ways.\nA person born into poverty has an almost impossible chance to suceed in any society.....skin color has little to do with it.\n\nDiscrimination and hatred is counter productive to the advancement of any society.\n\nWe are all the same in the eyes of the Law and perhaps in the eyes of God, if you believe in God.\n\nEach of us in a small way can impact our own society...Tolernace, respect, understanding. Also, we have an obligation to help those in need....Black, Yellow , brown or white.\n\nWe may never eliminate discrimination against whites or Blacks...But, we must continue to try. One day a blueyed person may be discriminated by brown eyed people.\n\nConclusion: No Race is born lazy, dirty or vilolent....I see little difference between white people born in povety in a coal minning town or a person of color born in  povety in a ghetto or a Native American born into povety on an "Indian reservation" They all share one thing is common: Povety.\n\nOne day, we could be very poor and have little hope of success.\nMany times it is just a matter of circumstances that determine our future. Ty for the great question.  Billy

if your society systematically puts down or punishes a specific group of people on a racial basis then there is no difference between the two, because that kind of discrimination (jobs, schools, neighbourhoods) will lead to an increase in criminal behaviour....simply because there are fewer and fewer alternatives, if any, available.\n\nif white anglo-saxon protestants were systematically beaten down for generations, then they'd pretty much match the criminal profile.

Probably any racial issue

I personally do not do not think God wants us to keep to or own color or race, after all we are all Gods children! I believe god is more concerned with the spiritual than the physical. What bothers me is when the children of mixed races get the brunt of racism or that they may be torn to decide what race they belong to and therefore feel ostracized by both. This is so sad.

They should be completely banned when EVERY race stops segregating themselves. Such as religous schools and all black. If ppl put more thought into the discrimination they bring to themselves we wouldn't live in a society that has as many barriers as this. And no, I am not racist.

Yes.  I wouldn't try it because judging by your question you don't understand some of the basic propositions.  Every decision made by everyone involves discrimination -- selecting between options.  A court case involving discrimination involves proof of the type of discrimination (race and religion as opposed to some lawful type of distinction) and who was doing the discriminating (a government, a public accomodation or a private person), the damages, the method of proof, mixed motives and dozens of other variables. \n\n I am free to discriminate based on race.  I can decide to only allow certain races to visit my home.  Governments are not free to make that distinction.  However, governments are free to make all kinds of other distinctions and to discriminate based on legitimate criteria.   Thus if you think that "discrimination" without more is the basis for a "case" against someone, you are mistaken.
