Subject: Is it discrimination?

1. An African man is fired from his job because he is black. Is it discrimination?
2. A Jew is fired from his job because he is a jew. is it discrimination?
3. A homosexual is fired from his job because he is a homosexual. Is it discrimination?
4. An African couple are denied the legal rights of a married couple because they are black. Is it discrimination?
5. A Jewish couple are denied the legal rights of a married couple because they are jews. Is it discrimination?
6. A homosexual couple are denied the legal rights of a married couple because they are homosexual. Is it discrimination?

Nobody will argue that cases 1 to 5 are discrimination. What about case 6? If it is not discrimination, why?
