I believe everyone to be equal. Though I am not equating equal to 'value'.

I have a slightly different take on this, although I think I can see what you mean here Ustwo.

Rather than us not being equal, and the result boring, I see it that this perceived difference (not being equal) is more like everyone having their certain 'function' within the world and it's experiences. Much like a production of a play, we all have our parts to make it work, although I am not saying that this has anything to do with fate either.

When I look at it in this light this is why it is not boring, yet I still see everyone as equal.
