I think we're all pretty much born with similar potentials, and in that sense we're all created equal... despite my relatively nietzschean views on genes and selective breeding. Genetics is rarely a factor in choosing a mate in our society (do we really choose who we fall in love with anyways?), but i think modern medicine and society's proclivity for morons is helping to weaken the gene pool.

However, we all grow up in different environments and the people we grow into are definitely NOT equal. We are all equally protected by law, although that hasn't always been the case (and there are still exceptions).
