Equality

Why?
---
- Galatians 3:27-29 (NABRE) ~ For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free person, there is not male and female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s descendant, heirs according to the promise.
------
Equality is the main purpose here because it defines us (specifically Jews/Christians) as "one". So, for example, in the Bible passage, where it says "there is not male and female", it is telling us that Christ does not care which sex we come from, nor what nationality, nor status in society, because "we are ONE" in Christ.
