  1. I think prejudice is a way that the people found to judge other peole that don't think as the same way as them, or is not the same race, and other reasons. So prejudice was the method that they judge others, its an excuse to show everyone that they have reasons to be more than others.

  2. Prejudice is a way that people use to make themselves feel better by diminishing others. Mainly coloured people; these people suffered persecution in restaurants, school, at work, etc. Why? Because they were minorities at that time. We, as humans, tend to be bias to minor social groups, or anything that goes against the socio-cultural ideas and customs.

  3. All over the world, prejudice is handled with emphasis at school discussions or even at government issues. In its literal form it means a premature opinion of something or someone different of the usual.
    Every single person says that it's bad, and it mustn't exist, but if they analyse their lives, they will realize that everyone has a kind of prejudice in themselves.
    If you don't know what something really is, you shouldn't give a negative opinion about it. It's unfair and irracional.

  4. Prejudice- common element, which is resulted by a natural instinct, formed according to a respective culture and historic past we should know it and have good sense to separate that initial idea of the reality, cause if it doesn’t we can commit a huge mistake sometimes even humiliating a person; Therefore we will just attract wickedness to our soul.

  5. In my opinion prejudice is an ethical problem that must be viewed carefully. In societies, the bias is developed from the search, by people biased in trying to locate those victims of prejudice to them the "missing" to be similar to others.The prejudice leads to discrimination since it is based solely on appearances and empathy.
