I'm beginning to have a hard time believing everyone is created equal.

I come across people my age and older struggling to work at a decent level delivering pizzas or other simple things as basic as driving a nail. And often, I meet people even younger then me with more skills in multiple areas and more drive then I could ever muster. Are we inequal from the start? Are some of us just, better then others? All privalage, upbringing, and culture aside; just the people as they stand alone.

All you are is what your environment has shaped you to be. At a certain point you become self aware enough to change your trajectory, but you can only make slight adjustments without overhauling the entire proces.

@DontMindMe That may be true, however our human environment is far from natural. Even people with extreme disability are not only allowed to survive, they're almost not allowed to die. Natural selection is lost on humans and our genetic strength suffers from it

There is a point to be made about the disconnect of human society and whatever humanity really is...

We seem to have lost ourselves as both individuals and a group.

I support a variation of that quote and it's strictly my opinion so take it with a grain of salt.

We are definitely not born equal but we do have the same potential to shape our futures through our choices.

I don't even know if we all have the same choices

I guess so.some are blessed with good health then there are some who are full of disabilities.lacking in physical capabilities and mentality.yet those are the turely gifted ones.yes everyone is equally going to Die.that's about all it seems.

We're all different but with similar needs. In this way we're equal. Very different social envirinnegts mean huge levels of inequality however

I like that point... It's less about the ability and more about how we all have to same requirements of life. I'll agree with that

We are created equal Its what we do after that

DontMindMe · 31-35, M

But even at birth, it seems certain people have a higher cieling or a lower floor depending on their genes or something

@DontMindMe Ya thats why you hear of people building stuff in there garages and becoming quite rich
