How is prejudice different from racism?
Racism is the slander or the demeaning of other ethnic groups.
Prejudice is when people pass judgment with out prior knowledge. For instance if you were to say that this person you've seen around is wierd or doesn't fit in with YOUR definition of normal before getting to know this person then this would be an example of prejudice.
If you agree that all men are created equal, then you are giving up the right to claim or believe that you have some inherent superiority by reason of your own ethnicity. You may still be a terrific person and you may have excellent self esteem, but you cannot consider that you are automatically superior by birth.

How Might Perceptual sets create prejudice or discrimination?
Perceptual sets can create prejudice or discrimination by influencing how individuals interpret and categorize information about others based on preconceived notions or stereotypes.

This can result in biased judgments and behaviors towards certain groups of people.
The simplified generalization which is found the most often and which yields the most effect is what the main stereotype is. Generalized simplifications usually revolve around one group's perception of another as a reminder of previous bad encounters and a resolve to focus upon differences, not similarities, on a mass level between one population and another.
What is the difference between prejudice and discrimination?

What is a cultural stereotype?
The stereotype would be the 'normal type' or point-of-reference that all other individuals would be measured against.

In a scientific real the stereotype would be referred to as a control sample.
How prejudice can be manifested?
On one account, prejudice involves failing to take into proper account a person's (or, more generally, an agent's) interests simply because of some arbitrary fact or feature of that person (or agent). For instance, a racist might discount the interests of people who belong to a race that she dislikes. A sexist might discount the interests of people of the 'wrong' gender. And so on. People discriminate against others on the basis of race, sex, class, religion (or lack thereof), looks, sexual orientation, and more.
Prejudice stains our relationships with animals, too. Just as many people are racist or sexist, so too are many people "specialist": these people fail to take into proper account the interests of other beings simply on account of their species. They say, for instance, that animal suffering doesn't matter because it's *animal* suffering rather than human suffering. Without further explanation, this argument is no better, no more convincing, than more familiar modes of discrimination like sexism or racism.
No. Utilitarianism basically works on the principle of making the largest number of people possible as happy as possible. While the ability to discriminate would make one subset of a population happy, it would result in the unhappiness of a larger subset of that population, making a net unhappiness. It is therefore against the idea of utilitarianism to discriminate.
However, if more than one group could be discriminated against, and if all groups have equal ability to discriminate, it may be the case that in certain situations and with certain permitted levels of discrimination that it indeed results on a net overall happier population. In this scenario, discrimination would acceptable to a specific degree.
