Equality

  1. obviously mona but that doesn't mean that it doesn't exist simply because someone can't detect it currently. or else we would still be living on a flat world.
     
  2. Wow I just got the perfect analogy from that post xD. OK so there's 2 trucks. Let's say 2 Ford F150s. No two car is made exactly the same since each part is machined one by one. Anyways, so there's two trucks. Made equal, now the drivers are the ones who choose what the trucks do. One driver can drive and never make an oil change while the other driver can take extreme care of his car. One car will all be busted up while the other looks brand new. Still they are the same trucks. What makes them different? The care and work the owners put in them.
     
  3. A person is not born pshycopath, the same way a person is not born racist, the same way a person isn't born depressive, we get may become it with life... But we are not born like that
     
  4. I can post a pic proving equality 
     
  5. Everyone is born equal.

    Society just changes that.
    Based on your gender, preferences, national origin, etc.

    But everyone is born equal.
     
  6. Is this question intentionally vague?

    What constitutes equality?
     
  7. Everyone perceives equality to their own liking.
     
  8. Or to that they truly believe it is.
     
  9. ppl are born with a pre-disposition to exhibit certain behaviors. if you are born with a chemical imbalance in your brain… the same stimulus to a person with perfect brain chemistry wouldn't have the same results.

    your basically trying to say that mental illness is a learned behavior.
     
  10. Yes, the question is intentionally vague.
     
  11. I agree with the OP We are absolutely not born equally.

    Immediately from birth, everyone is born into a different class. Some people are born into wealth, while others are not as lucky.

     From birth, the gender of a person will determine what jobs they can land, as well as how much a person will make. In America, a woman will make $0.72 to every man's $1. That is not equal in any way

     The race of a person from birth plays a role in getting jobs in America. African Americans have a much higher rate of unemployment compared to whites. Hispanics also suffer a higher unemployment rate compared to whites. Sadly, race has and continues to play a large role in the job market.

     Race from birth can play a role in criminal rulings. African Americans are more incarcerated compared to whites (10% of all African Americans in America) are in jail Seems ridiculously high since African Americans are not even half the  U.S. population. Based on your race, it can play a role in determining if one should serve jail time or not.
     
  12. I do not believe everyone is born equal.
     
  13. Ok I've put some thought into this...I do think everyone is born equally, but I do not think that everyone has an equal chance in life. I think this because some people are rich,poor,fat,skinny,smart,athletic etc. No one can control if the will be fat skinny smart etc. they can contribute to it. I'm going to bring a little religion into this because God controls how every ones life plays out in my religion. So no one can actually have an equal chance because it's not your choice, but if you have a different religion the this could change. Maybe if your religion is different then maybe your God(s) don't control everything that happened that's why I think this question is so mind boggling.

    So in conclusion yes, I think everyone is born equal.(I mean we are all human)No, not everyone has an whil chance.

  14.  I would rather a God not control if I lose weight when I exercise or not.


    What happened to free will?


    Ohhhh philosophy.
     
  15. equalitty???? where
     
  16. Until someone gives me solid reasons otherwise, I'll stand by what I've said: we are all born equal, we lose equality the second after we are born. We are not created equal.
     
  17. I like that answer mona.
     
  18. Free will is a myth... We have free will to do what we are expected to do, even if that expected something is something unexpected...

    Laws are here to remind us that :)
