Why can't you answer a simple question without becoming defensive and derogatory?

FAIL.

There is no prejudice. The biggest failure is 'FEAR'.

"a man's seemingly palpable need to dislike someone other than himself." -Rod Serling" as you quote

is IN ITSELF is a pure expression of 'FEAR'.

That's why man created a need for a GOD. Fearful of the unknown, and a necessity to have an explanation beyond his own understanding of not being able to accept that he doesn't have an answer, leads to no fear. Prejudice is the least of primary culpables.

Never heard of Rod Stewart myself, but he sounds like a complete ass.
