In the United States, the "separate but equal" doctrine refers to legally sanctioned segregation arising (in part) from the US Supreme Court decision in Plessy v. Ferguson, (1896).
"Separate but equal" allowed states to pass laws requiring separate accommodations and facilities for people on the basis of race or color in order to prevent African-Americans, who had recently been freed from slavery, from intermingling with whites, who believed themselves superior to African-Americans.
The Court followed several lines of reasoning that allowed segregation, and its racist Jim Crow laws, to flourish: 1) The Fourteenth Amendment didn't apply to private individuals or businesses, only to government entities; 2) The Fourteenth Amendment wasn't intended to prevent states from enacting "reasonable" laws that segregated individuals by race "for the public good"; 3) If the accommodations were equal (which was rarely the case), there was no violation of the Fourteenth Amendment.
White Americans used the "separate but equal" doctrine to maintain dominance over African-Americans and to limit their interaction with them as peers. Since African-Americans had little social or political power at the time, they were forced to comply with unconstitutional, racist laws and discriminatory treatment that has yet to be completely overcome.
Amendment XIV, Section I
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
The separate but equal doctrine was a Unites States constitutional law that permitted racial segregation. Segregation was allowed as long as the quality of all services and facilities remained equal. This doctrine was established in the Plessy v. Ferguson Supreme Court case of 1896.
It wasn't any one person, but was more a approach to segregation . An unwritten law. Very much like the thinking that " a good Indian was a dead one". Often there are things like this that is expressed, but not on paper. When Marshal expressed this in his court case before the Supreme Court he was expressing something that was a truism in society. I don't think it had ever been put quite that way before.
It meant that segregation was legal as long as the separate facilities were "equal." For instance, if a place wanted to have a white school and a black school, based on this case, that was perfectly legal as long as both schools had equivalent books, supplies, funding etc. This decision was overturned by Brown v. Board when it was determined that separate but equal was unequal by its very nature.

Monotheism asserts the belief in one God, while Christianity, which includes the belief in Jesus as the Son of God and part of the Holy Trinity, complicates the notion of monotheism by incorporating a divine figure beyond God the Father.

A Castle Doctrine is an American legal doctrine claimed by advocates to arise from English Common Law that designates one's place of residence as a place in which one enjoys protection from illegal trespassing and violent attack. I've been able to find about the adoption of "Castle Doctrine" laws by various states. California, Michigan, Oregon, and Texas are absent from that list.
