Are we all in truth, Equal?

Are we all truly equal? Everyone is born equal, right? Then do you believe that all adults are equal on this planet?

For me I think life is unfair, even in birth. Not everyone will be born into a home with loving parents. And even in life certain people, due to intelligence, wealth, beauty, or influence, will have certain advantages to certain successes. Then again maybe inequality is part of the nature of life itself...

Everyone is not born equal, no one is equal, and no one will ever be equal.

Only in death are we equal.

Even that's debatable. Some have nice funerary rites and others are tossed into a ditch.

Ok, what I meant to say was we all die eventually. I know its obvious, but there is just nothing equal about humans. Unless you count the really obvious things like oxygen to live.

Yes. For starters we're human.

We are born with the same rights, but we are not equal.

Only in birth and death.

But then one has to wonder if being human is a valid use of measurement. For one thing, can you tell me what a human is? And I don't mean in the sense of we are made of such and such percentage of elements. If you jumble the same amount of elements together, (in the correct configuration)is what you've made a human?

I know you meant that, I just wanted to argue. Death is the grand equalizer.

I'm not human and the idea that a crackhead and a pedo is equal to me is not debatable.. it fucking retarded.. Am i special then anyone else.. 99% no. Am i special because im white and not living on the street, no. Am i special because my race is superior then your race.. nope. SIEG ZEON.

Got to the point where I think that, yes, in a "dictionary" sense we are equal. Flesh, blood, organs and everything is the same within us. The contradiction are the people who are born deaf, mute or have some other problems. Along with adaptation, someone born in England is not adapted to Canada, Brazil or Japan. No human is different than another besides skin color and/or adaptation. Same with animals, all born from the same tree, but with different color and/or adaptation.

Not everyone is born with the same rights. There is no one that is equal.

"Nobody really believes in equality anyway" Warren Farrell, no one is equal because the ones who have more don't want to be on the same level as the ones who have less.

No, no one is equal. The only right that seems to be universal (in a global sense) is the right to TRY to live. But with that thought being exceedingly debatable, there is no way that all people are equal.

Yes and no. Genetic superiority and social privileges play a vital part in both the mother's pregnancy and delivery of the baby. In life, it depends fully on how you're measuring it. Neither social privilege or genetics lead to instant success at anything. But they do give a rather large advantage if the person is intelligent enough to use them.

No, and it's better that way.

If everyone were truly equal in all manner of things, the world and society would stagnate- and fall into a mire of some sort of delusional dystopian utopia where people are all equally miserable and equally apathetic towards it.

We are born in nature equal, but in society we are on whole new plain.

we are equal as human beings, but we are not equal as people


oh.....the person before me just said the same thing....wow...sorry....but hey! diversity!

[font=verdana][color=green]As a Westerner, who lives without disease and famine being constant worries, it's very easy for you to say that.

But no, we aren't truly equal. "It's who you know, not what you know".
