Why not firemen? Why not albinos? Why not anybody else except those groups listed? They are discriminatory laws based on a particular and highly debatable analysis of history. Advocates of affirmative action never address these matters because these are sacred cows, off limits to reasoned examination. People are just supposed to accept as self-evident that the state is needed to provide some kind of equality between people. There are so many black conservatives who despise this modern liberal colonial paternalism but modern liberals have to feel good about themselves by patting the black guy on the head with a "Now, now, you're going to be alright. I'm from the government and I'm here to help." Non-discrim. laws are inherently discriminatory, OF COURSE, and are a deadly assault on civilization because they require the micromanaging state to interfere where it has no business in our lives and relationships. This kind of paternalistic politics is advanced and demanded today in a day of broken and shattered families where many men had no father figure at home, or no good father figure, to show them what real paternalism looked like in the home. So now, thrown out into the wild world, they need Dad, so they look around and turn to the state to play that role - if not for them, then for those around them who they think need a father figure.

There is NO Christian spirit of equity. There is a strong strain of violence and murder in the Bible, both the old and new testaments. Whole societies are killed because the people of god (in the Bible myths) were told it was the good thing to do. The “spirit” you suggest simply doesn’t exist. In fact it’s opposite does.
