The "equality of all" is a naive myth which serves mainly to perpetuate
mediocrity in the human race. "....that all men are created equal" makes a nice
sound-bite but even the most casual examination of any random sample of
humankind disproves it beyond any doubt.

I knew I could count on the MMM for the elitist view

There's nothing "elitist" about is.

It's a fact of common sociology.

It always baffles me that free people buy into the notion of "democratic
equality", because in fact the notions of "freedom" and "all are equal"are
almost diametrically opposed. If I accept that I am your equal (and that you
are mine) then I give up all freedom to be different from you, better than you,
or worse than you. I simply WILL NOT give up that freedom, and therefore I
reject the notion of "human equality".

simple Bull#### Hans equality in rights does not mean one gives up the
right to the be different

Spelling's better, but your grammatical structure still needs
work.

freedom and equality are not in consistant

Sure they are.

There are hundreds of millions of people all over the world who
share the same basic "freedom" that I do, but are NOT my "equal" on
many, many levels.

You're proof of that, Mark.

If you want to explore the results of real human equality, read Kurt Vonnegut's
short story "Harrison Bergeron" at http://instruct.westvalley.edu/lafave/hb.html

why since the line of "Reasoning" is GIGO

You're kinda stuck on that "GIGO" acronym, aren't you, Mark?

It's no longer generally applicable for many reasons. On more
than one example I can put "garbage in" and get something useful out on
the other side.
