Equlity. Good thing or not?

[poddster]

This is a simple poll (or is it );-)B-)]:)

The question is:-

Should all people be equal?

Give ita bit of thought before you answer.

If you answer Yes

Why did you answer in the affirmative?

Describe the :"equal" person that everyone should modeled on

If you answer No

Why did you answer in he negative?

[poddster]

The thing is that inequality exists were some think that there is an 'ideal human' 

Would you like to have it any other way Iza?

What model of person would you like to be equated to?

[crystal-gems]

I am trying to figure our in what context you mean by 'equal'

Are rapists/killers/rednecks/child abusers/charity workers/kind honest and generous people/et al......are they all equal?

Ummm.... read the opening post LL

Should all people be equal?

And if you have answered Yes, then you have agreed that everyone should be the same.

My question to you is who would you like to be the same as?

Perhaps you are thinking along the lines that everyone should be like you 🙂

i'm more inclined to leave people to be themselves .. but with equal opportunity to do so.

i would not like people to be like me or all the same. that's presumptuous of you..

i get the feeling you are trying to make a point ? i also get the feeling i will disagree 🙂

of course. but the killers /rapists etc have to be held to account for their actions.

Having an ideal model is not equality...it sounds more like elitism and past history to me ?

"Ummm.... read the opening post LL

errr ...  poddo. read the topic headin'    

equlity (whatever THAT is B-))  good thing or not ?

a different question to "should all people be equal"      

[poddster]

So LL did you answer Yes?

If so, were you just paying lip service to the illusion of "equality'?

[para-gone]

I get the feeling there is a point too but nobody has provided the right answer  for the punch lineyet LOL

[izabsmiling]

Poddster, what is your definition of equality ?

[poddster]

...it sounds more like elitism and past history to me ? 

But if everyone was equal there would be no such thing as elitism.

Elitism, by definition, implies inequality
