FAIRNESS

• PREJUDICE IS EVIL, WHETHER IT BE AGAINST THE MINORITY OR AGAINST THE MAJORITY.
• PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT AND NOBODY SHOULD BE PERSECUTED FOR THEIR DIFFERENCE.
• LIBERTY ALSO MEANS THAT NOBODY SHOULD BE PERSECUTED FOR HOLDING AN OPINION.
• LIFE IS ALL ABOUT MAKING CHOICES, INDIVIDUAL CHOICES AND COLLECTIVE CHOICES; NOBODY SHOULD BE PERSECUTED FOR THE CHOICES THEY HAVE MADE.
• SOME PEOPLE MAY NEED TO BE PROTECTED FROM BEING PERSECUTED BY OTHER PEOPLE BUT SUCH PROTECTION MUST NOT BE DONE IN A WAY TO AMOUNT TO THE PERSECUTION OF OTHER PEOPLE.
• BEFORE WE CRITICISE OTHERS FOR BEING PREJUDICED, WE SHOULD CHECK OURSELVES ALSO TO SEE THAT WE ARE NOT PREJUDICED, FOR IT IS EASY TO SEE THE SPECK IN OTHER PEOPLE'S EYES AND YET MISS THE LOG IN OUR OWN EYES.
• LET US BE FAIR TO ALL, WHETHER THEY ARE STRONG OR WEAK, WHETHER THEY ARE MANY OR FEW, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY ARE RIGHT OR WRONG.
• JUST BE FAIR.
