Remember, Christians are strongly caste (to be precise casta) based. Note that the first use of the word caste by the British in India was to denote the half-caste known as Anglo-Indian. They called them a caste as they didn't feel they were "pure" enough to enter "White" British clubs/houses etc..
I read a story about a Anglo-Indian dentist in the 1920's who "looked" White but was afraid of people finding out about his Indian blood, as this would put him at a lower caste than the Whites and therefore damage his career.
Anglo-Saxon castes also practiced a rigid form of untouchability. However, untouchability and caste practices were most rigid and potent in the United States and South Africa. Due to Western Christian "pollution" rules, drinking fountains were not shared by upper caste Whites until late 1960's well after Hindu's abolished caste based discrimination. Copying the highly civilized culture of Hindus, Affirmative Action was adopted in the U.S. as well.
In Medieval Christian Europe, caste systems were very rigid, The lowest caste's were called serfs who were kept in their place, above them were merchants and craftsmen castes. Many people of European ancestry still have last names denoting such castes, example cooper is a barrel maker caste, carpenter, potter, smith etc.. In Germany Schwarzenegger is a blacksmith caste, Zimmerman is a carpenter caste. Above them were the Knight warrior castes. Above them were the Priests and Nobles. The British, Canadian, and Australian head of State is from the Royal family caste of UK. This is the one of the last remaining caste based head of state. Also British Christians have rigid caste and class hierarchy. Ex: The landed gentry caste (Recently elected Cameron for example) are viewed with suspicion by the lower caste's in UK due to their prior privileged status.
Above all casta is a Portuguese/Spanish word, hence Caste is primarily a Western school of thought. The Christian and Muslim slave system was far worse than anything that existed in the world (and far worse than even their caste systems). It's horrendous Brutality and murderous nature is unparalleled in human history.
