For example, âequalityâ and âequityâ are not synonyms and it is imperative that we understand the fundamental difference. âEqualityâ seeks to level the playing field for opportunities to âget aheadâ in our society by being evaluated equally for admission to the most prestigious schools and job opportunities, applying such time-tested tools as bringing ethnic and societal background into the equation. The 1960s attempts to promote such equality often involved racial or ethnic quotas and âset asides,â which were labeled by many as reverse discrimination.

I have decided to rush into territory where angels often fear to tread – commenting on a dispute in another faith tradition that is different than my own. Let me state for the record that I am not a Roman Catholic. Since the age of six and a half I have been a member of the Southern Baptist denomination and an ordained Southern Baptist minister since the age of 23. Clearly, Baptists came out of the left-wing of the Reformation starting in Switzerland in the 16th century (circa 1525).
However, I do believe the question of whether President Biden should describe himself, or be described by others, as a “devout” Catholic when he is such an aggressive pro-abortion proponent is a valid and important one. An even more important question is whether being such a pro-abortion proponent, he should be denied communion by a priest when he presents himself for communion.
