OK, I see you were born several generations too late. However, for the sake of argument, what should be the rights of those who do not agree that a woman's main responsibility is to bear children? Or that homosexuality is wicked? Or that leveling the playing field is discrimination?

How you lead your life is one thing. If you hold these beliefs, and practice them in peace, more power to you, as long as you do not thrust your idea of morality onto others. THAT is the point.

So, social progress is defined as moving from a narrow point of view where a few people's ideas of morality and justice gives way to a diverse view that is more representative of the population. I understand that if you were one of the few with a monopolistic view of what is right, and lost that monopoly, you would not see it as progress.
