Re: Easter Sunday?
I still don't understand how we can have more or less
discrimination. This is my point. Even if we exam instances of
discrimination, we are looking at numbers. What offends me is the idea
that there is such a thing as less discrimination. Anytime anyone is
discriminated against it should be examined and we should make any
attempt we can to avoid it. In several previous posts on this topic,
people have explained instances of discrimination in CEDA debate. Noone
should say this discrimination was worse than that discrimination.
I think that it really sucks that people are not going to attend
CEDA nats because it falls on Easter. I also think that it sucks that
many of us who are attending will miss spending the holiday with our
families. The only point that I was trying to make is with the wording of
the post-"less dicrimination is better than more." I think that this sort
of justification is dangerous and wrong, because there is no way to weigh
dicrimination. That is the way I read the line. I don't think that it is
wrong for me to caution this sort of reasoning. I'm sorry if my sarcastic
tone got in the way. I stand by what I say. There is no more or less when it
comes to discrimination.
