In your opinion, has it been proven that all people are created equal?

I don't think it has been proven. I think it's just a belief, like democracy is the best form of government or God exists. Sure, lots of people may believe it, but that doesn't make it a fact. What do you think?

I agree. It is not a fact.

Totally disagree. It is a fact!

Everyone is equally beautiful in my eyes, and everyone of us should be uplifted. Man or animal, doesn't matter. But, laws say differently, but we shouldn't defer to assumptions that created the laws, and instead defer to the fact that we have similar cells.

it is self evident because having different levels is impossible.

What do you mean that having different levels is impossible? Has that proven, or is it a belief?

I think what this is supposed to mean is that all men are created equal under the law, which is a difference to them all together. As a matter of fact, of course, that's not true either. At least not in the U. S. It's not true.

It's not subject to proof -- it's a legal principle. People are not comparable in general.

Beyond belief it is not a fact. Take a look at any birth defect.

someone with a birth defect is still precious. and more important than any dumb animals.
