I do not believe in equality. I cannot believe in a concept which does not exist. Nor will I willingly accept attempts to force such an unnatural condition.

But love ain't equal

Before that is explained, I ask you: Do you believe in equality?

If you say yes, I tell you that you are wrong.

Because it can’t happen.

So if you still say you believe in equality, then why? and in what categories, amounts and degrees?

Lemme tell you full equality also means you must accept another's Point of View as being equal to your own. Must accept. In other words, you can't disagree with it. Disagreeing means their opinion is wrong and by being wrong, cannot be equal.

Still want equality?

So set aside opinions. Now do you want equality?

Get specific. You have to. You must move beyond the great unwashed masses of humanity down to a specific individual. When you talk about equality, it affects one person at the time.

With the Fallen Angel in the fine print, the great majority of people also don’t believe in the overall concept of equality.

Another way of saying it.

Some of you are still not agreeing with me. Is OK. I’m not done.

Nope. They are doing it right.

Define equality. Now make it apply to everyone, every person, you know. It applies to the short, the tall, the fat, the thin, the smart, the retarded. Still believe in equality? Now make it apply to convicted criminals, people who were charged with a crime but thanks to a shyster, got off. It has to apply those who commit crimes but were never caught to begin with. It has to apply to people you love, people you hate (if you do) and those for whom you have no feelings.

Got equality?

If you say you believe in equality but then start making exceptions, you no longer have a rule. You have a policy. Flex that policy often enough and it bends out of shape. Now you don’t even have a policy. You have an arbitrary set of decisions.

Equality does not mean fair. Get right down to it and equality is among the grossest examples of disparity you can come across.

There is nothing more unequal than the equal treatment of unequal people. An apocryphal statement attributed to Thomas Jefferson.

Ain't the same. Nope nope nope.

Why should everyone be treated the same? In addition to not deserving it, you can’t make it work unless you reduce the lowest common denominator to zero. In other words, you do nothing for anyone at any time for any reason. That’s equality.

You like the idea?

Let’s get narrower here.

Believe in equal rights? I don’t. Remember once you start making exceptions you no longer have a rule, but a policy.

Would you let a child molester open a day care facility?

Ok. Even I admit this will never be average

Accuse me if you will of using extreme examples. Given enough time and enough radicals, today’s extreme is tomorrow’s average.

Believe in equal access?

Would you let a blind person drive a semi down the interstate?

I admit to being highly suspicious of equal opportunity too. Would you let a person with an IQ of 50 enter Harvard medical school and attempt to become a surgeon?

The most ludicrous of the “equality” crowd’s demands is equality of results. Ask a teacher about the federal No Child Left Behind if you want a diatribe on equality of results.

That absolutely can never happen unless you lower the bar so much a flatworm would lose skin trying to get under it.

Explaining my statement with an image

Only the delusional believe in equality. That’s a statement which is gonna generate some heat from people who don’t understand it. I hope this cartoon at left explains it. If not, well, some folks will just have to misunderstand.

Find the error in this famous statement - “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

I rephrase slightly to tell you, all humans are not created equal. All humans are equal in the sight of the Creator, but that is not what the above statement says. Faith makes all people equal. Inequalities created by religion are because man gets involved.

If all humans are created equal, then why isn’t everyone a genius on the level of Einstein? Why don’t we all have perfect pitch? Why are some people tone deaf? Why are some people born with chromosome anomalies, a condition that began prior to conception and has nothing to do with the quality of pregnancy, the parents or anything except a random roll of the genetic dice?

Change must begin with me.

An idea. Not a new one either.

Rather than force an unnatural and impossible condition, how about we accord everyone by their abilities and how well they use those abilities.

Grasp that. Implement it.

It will change your world.

It’s absolutely unequal. But it is as close to absolutely fair as a human can get.

I’d rather have fair than equal any day.
