waht a great way to look at this! Wouldn't it be nice?

People lable becasue of fear. We need to understand to feel secure and
therefore we need to label and put in boxes, in patterns so that we can lessen
our fear. Unfortuantely, people often add 'bad' to their lables and to them
what they see as different from them in either thinking or appearence is
characterised as mad/bad.

It also serves as a boost to their own self worth. Having enemies makes us
feel superior and more worthy because we can look down upon others. Non whites
and women and gay people have served this purpose in western white culture.
Women and gays in every(almost) culture plus the non white cultures also have
their wrong coulor people.
