"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..."
While that sounds wonderfully beautiful and delightfully romantic and gracious, it is NOT TRUE.
At least, not in my humble opinion.
We are NOT CREATED EQUAL in numerous areas, the least of which are:
- height
- wealth
- birth location
- intelligence
- beauty
- judicial
- employment
- birth conditions
- athletic ability
- musical ability
- artistic ability
- leadership
- bone structure
- muscle structure
- retention
- organ health
- pre-existing conditions
- longevity
We also must understand that the words ALL MEN also refer to ALL WOMEN even though the word women is never mentioned.
Why not?
Did our founding fathers overlook women intentionally?
If our founding fathers overlooked women, as well as blacks, as well as the concept of being equal, then WHAT ELSE DID THEY OVERLOOK?
It is something to think about...
