All people are equal.... however until society truly becomes colorblind, gender blind, class blind, handicap blind, personal choices blind (homosexuality, religion, cultures) and so on, then society will always have issues.

I fear, though, if we ever do achieve "true equality and these blindnesses" we will lose individuality.

In other words, perhaps prejudices (whether conscious or sub) drives us to be individuals and allows us to believe (however wrong we know it is) better than others.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
