It never fails to amaze me that despite the lessons of history and what life teaches us, we still have people who have not learned from racial, ethnic, religious and gender prejudices. Now we add to the panoply of such prejudices a new one: sexual orientation.

Of course, the rationale for these prejudices is quite discernable and immature. All one does is cite one or more objectional behaviors that someone manifests and then accrues it to an entire race, ethnicity, gender, or sect to which that someone belongs. An example of such turned up on the Board recently when lawyers became the object of a Board member's prejudice. It is so unintelligent.
