"The Equal Rights Amendment is not dead in North
Carolina." , .
With this statement , pastor-teacher Jim Abrahamson of the
Cible Church opened a forum Tuesday night on "The Equal
Rights Amendment and the Christian's Response." A panel of
four professor two in law, one in religion and one in
computer science discussed the pro and con sides of the issue
Bill Aycock, Kenan professor of law, who spoke for the
amendment, said Section lot the ERA was not directed to the
private sector but msTead was alined at federal, state and local
governments. He explained the language of the amendment
and said Section 2 was a carbon copy of Section 5 of the 14th
Amendment.
The 14th Amendment, the 5th Amendment, the Commerce
Clause and the Taxing and Spending Clause of the
Constitution have already been used in cases involving sex
discrimination, Aycock said. "There is a legal potential for
greater things to be achieved (under the ERAK" he said.
"You may have no fears about the legality of the ERA and
yet decide to oppose it on other grounds."
Speaking against the amendment was Wake Forest law
professor Rhoda Billings who said many opponents fear the
ERA may become absolute. Race discrimination cases fall
under "suspect classification" for the Supreme Court, Billings
said. "This rneans in order for a law against race
discrimination to stand, government must show a compelling
government interest and strict necessity," she said. Billings
said she feared this classification could be applied to sex
discrimination cases, making the ERA
"The things women are seeking.-. .(under the ERA) have
been achieved," she said, citing the Commerce Clause and
other laws Aycock had mentioned. "If we say there's no
further legal benefit from ERA, what's the harm? What's the
good?"
- The religious implications of the ERA were explored by
Marilyn Massey, assistant professor of religion at Duke
University and Fred Brooks, Kenan professor of computer
science at Carolina. Massey said that Christians were divided
on the ERA because there was really no moral majority in the
United States. "
Quoting scriptures which . supported both viewpoints,
Massey said there was no clear answer to the ERA question.
"The worst position is the simplistic identificiation of one side
with Christianity," she said.
"I would opt for an absolute guarantee of equal rights,"
Massey said, "so that we'd guarantee we don't go backward."
Aycock also said that draft registration of women would be
decided by the Supreme Court, although the president and
Congress would decide who would go into the armed forces.
Homosexual marriages would not be an issue under the ERA,
he said. ' '
Privacy, or the "potty issue," as Billings called it, was an
issue the two sides disagreed upon. Aycock said the Supreme
Court would make it legal to provide separate toilets to ensure
privacy. But Billings said no legal scholar could interpret what
the Supreme Court would say about ERA. :"'
"If the courts do go overboard, we cannot change it,"
Billings said. "Only another amendment could do this. It is a
risk." ' ; -
