Review Religion, Human Rights and Social Justice

Review Human Rights & Social Justice The basic rights and freedoms to which all human beings should be entitled Social Justice: Ensuring society treats people fairly whether they are poor or wealthy and protects people’s human rights

Human Rights & Social Justice Basics We learn from an early age that life is unfair, but injustice in society can be very serious e.g. a minority group being treated badly or even persecuted. Social justice is concerned with protecting people’s civil liberties, rights and opportunities and taking care of the least advantaged in our society. In some countries people are not free to express their opinion,. These societies can suffer from a breakdown of law and order, terrorism, mass unemployment or a huge gap between rich and poor. Those who believe in social justice seek to create a more equal world where people have human rights and do not struggle unnecessarily. Human Rights 1948: UN General Assembly adopted The Universal Declaration of Human Rights In 30 articles the declaration sets out what should be the minimum rights for a human being to have in order to be free. Article 1 “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in the spirit of brotherhood.”

The Human Rights Act The Human Rights Declaration was established after WW2 in the European Convention of Human Rights. Later the UK incorporated this into the Human Rights Act which became law in 2000. Some parts of the Convention have not yet been incorporated into British law. Citizens who feel their human rights have been violated can take their case to British courts and a judge will decide what happens. Alternatively an individual can sue for damages. If a citizen of a European Union country is dissatisfied with the decision of the courts in their own country they can then take their case to the European Court of Human Rights. When Britain leaves the European Union the government will not retain The Human Rights Act and may have to implement their own bill of Human Rights.

Human Rights A deeply religious Christian couple own a cake making company. They strongly believe that homosexuality is forbidden by the Bible and refuse to make a cake celebrating the recent legalisation of same sex marriage in Ireland. They claim that this is their right under Article 9 (freedom of thought, conscience and religion). The customer who ordered the cake seeks to challenge this ban in the courts, claiming that it amounts to a form of discrimination contrary to Article 14. Conflicting human rights Sometimes the rights of two groups conflict in terms of the Act and courts may have to decide which set of rights to uphold. Consider the following example and decide whose rights you would support.

Prejudice & Discrimination Prejudice is a thought or idea about someone that leads you to pre-judge them based on the group they belong to. Discrimination: Discrimination is treating someone differently, an action based on your prejudice. Harmony: Living together without conflict SOCIAL JUSTICE: Ensuring that society treats people fairly whether they are poor or wealthy and protects people’s human rights

Women’s rights - Islam The Qur’an teaches that both Muslim women and men should dress modestly. For many, this means that for women wearing short, low-cut or tight clothing is unacceptable because it can be seen as tempting men. Some Muslim women also choose to wear the hijab, niqab or burqa too. The niqab and burqa have been subject to much debate in the Western world and face coverings are banned in some European countries. Muslims are expected to marry and it is not unusual for the marriage to be arranged. Shariah law states that a Muslim woman can not be forced to marry against her wishes. When she marries she does not have to take her husband’s surname. Shariah law states that money or property a wife owned before her marriage remains hers. The family is very important to Muslims and the Qur’an teaches that husbands and wives have different roles. Islamic tradition sees it is a man’s job to go out and earn money and it is the woman’s job to look after the home and family. Many modern Muslim families balance looking after the home between husband and wife and many women choose to work as well as the men in the family. At the times of Muhammad, women were treated almost like servants. Unlimited polygamy was widespread. When the first Islamic community was established (the ummah), Muhammad changed many of these attitudes to women. The Qur’an states that men can take up to 4 wives, but only if he can treat them equally, and it is likely that Muhammad only supported polygamy as a way of taking care of women in a society which was very hostile towards them.

Sexism and religion - Christianity Roman Catholics think that… Men and women have equal rights and they can have any role in the church but they can’t be a priest or bishop. Because… The Catholic Catechism says men and women are equal Only men can be priests because Jesus only chose male disciples. Modern Protestants think that…. Men and women have equal rights and they have women ministers and priests Because… God created men and women ‘in his image’ and at the same time, so they are equal Jesus treated women as equals in the gospels Traditional Protestants think that… Men and women have separate and different roles and so cannot have equal rights Because… St Paul says women should not speak in church Jesus mainly had male followers Didn’t get time to go through this slide.
