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

You have that part right --- equality in rights is a fine thing, and we all
agree with it.

But I wasn't talking about "rights". I was talking about the flawed notion
that "all men are CREATED equal". We all have different physical attributes,
different levels of intelligence, different native skills and abilities, etc.,
etc., etc. Clearly we are NOT created equal. As an example, you may have a
great sense of pitch and rythm along with a good voice, so might become a famous
singer. I on the other hand, can't carry a tune in a tow sack. Clear to all
but deaf observers, we are NOT equal. The same analogy can be applied to any
human attribute you wish to examine, yet politicians (even though they don't
practice it themselves) still feed the masses this "created equal" myth, and the
masses still buy into it.


If you want to explore the results of real human equality,

why since the line of "Reasoning" is GIGO

I recommended it because KV does a much better job than I in illustrating the
issue.
