I would imagine that everyone (regardless of creed) is against injustice.

The problem is that different groups of people define injustice differently.

I personally feel it is an injustice to deny a person equal opportunities, responsibilities and respect because of race or gender. But, most Abrahamic religions teach that women are subordinate, cannot teach or instruct men and must obey their fathers and husbands.

There are any Christians who feel that capitol punishment is an injustice and I find myself fence-sitting on the issue.

To add complications, different Christians believe different things and everyone's beliefs are colored by the culture they grow up in. An American Christian might feel that it is an injustice for a young child to be asked to work in a factory to help support the family, while a Christian in a developing country might disagree. A Methodist might think it is unfair that the child of a Jehovah's witness has to leave a classroom when there is a birthday celebration. But, the Jehovah's Witness would disagree.

So, the most we can really get out of this is that everyone want to be a good person but it is pointless to try to lump people all together under one big label and expect them to all think and act alike.
