We are created equal; in so far as we all live, and breathe, and are a being. We are not equal in so far as we are gifted with talent, and intelligence, and how we use them.

It is "an equal".\n\nGod never sees an equal.\nA king seldom sees another king.\nWe are all 'equal' as we all are created equal by the same God.

This may actually have to do with Newtons laws of physics. This one would seem to be "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction"

Of course, at first glance, one is tempted to say "yes, life would be better if it were fair".\nWhen giving it serious thought it occurred to me that "fair" is objective. What I consider fair -good people get good, bad people get bad- others would define fair in other ways; i.e. everyone gets good, only good; or these people deserve bad and these deserve good, these deserve mediocre...\nI have to conclude that there is no 'fair' in our world as we know it.\nIt would require that everyone think, feel and believe the exact same thing. We can't get a consensus on anything in our own country much less around the world.

Equal just means that we have equal rights it doesn't mean that everyone is equal in other ways, everyone is different. We all have different wants and needs.

I cannot get over the stupidity of those of you who answer thinking that the question is comparing gays to animals.  The writer is merely pointing out that natures considers homosexuality as normal. Animals having that instinct canot be blamed on intellectual choice or mental illness the way antigayists try to portray.  So please if you want to answer the question, try understanding it first.\n\nThat said, most antigayists are homophobic, which really means they are fearful and fear means "what can happen to me? How can thishurt me?  Subconsciously the fear is they themselves may be gay if they allowed themselves to accept it in others.  Why fear that? because then they believe they may be ostracized by their friends, familiy and neighbors and perhaps by their GOD.    Animals, which include humans, by the way....mammal.......there is no intellect. Man is the only mammal withy extensive intellect and reasoning.  If we take that away, tere would be no fear and no ostracism.  There would merely be survival. It is clear that despite homosexual behavior in animals, that is not a concommitant of their extinction ior being endangered , the continue to survive.  In this analysis antigayism is fear based and there is no good reason for it to be wrong.

"Something nonexistant.\n\nThere is no love between animals, only survival."\n\n^\n|\nI don't have an answer, but I have to say, this answer quoted is crap.  Just because something is abstract, or because something serves a purpose doesn't mean it doesn't exist.\n\nThat's like saying:\n"There is no law between men; only survival."\n\nWell, a law is not a physical thing that you can put in your pocket, and it is abstract.  It also happens to serve a very useful peupose, but that does not mean that it is the purpose, which is just as abstract anyways.

This is a quesiton made for Doctors but i think i can add a point here,  there is a big gab between man and animals, for you to take the blood of animal and feed animal is like asking the dog in your community to send a mail from your mail box to a freind.  the brain of animals can never be equated with man.  the thought of animals can never balance with man too.Never in life should you think of using animal blood to man.  Man is made to be so high than any other thng in the world.  and talkign about the blood is the highest liquid that deserve respect than any other liquid on planet earth for now.  But tomorrow we can reach a point we will see a better liquid than Blood.  Please have respect and respect the liquid that is red in colour called BLOOD.  Thanks and God Bless US

Reality is what we perceive it to be.  In this age of over-information, reality seems to be what "they" tell us it is.\n\nIt had become harder than ever to sift out the noise in all of the stimuli in our lives.  I don't envy children today who are forced to wade through countless messages of consumerism, patriotism, and all the other isms that are competing for our mindspace.  George Orwell was right, but he was a bit off in his timing.  "1984" is now reality and Big Brother is watching.

This quote comes from Orwells book "1984". He wrote the book so I assume he is the source of the quote.

That's why British have become so paranoiac!!! I could not first understand George Orwell in his first book "animals farm" but he made himself clear in "1984". \nIt's really sad how  technology becomes satanic in the hands of insane greedy politicians. Between us: we don't have a better situation in Iran! I guess this disease is contagious.

Well that phrase comes from a book of the same name. Its just pointing out that male/female are 2 very different creatures regarding; thought process, wants/needs, and just about anything else you can think of. I'm not saying one is better than the other, just 2 sides of the same coin.

Wow . . . lots of government sheep have come to the defense of their fellow farm animals.\n\nCops are gang members, willing to protect their own whether right or wrong.  Anyone who thinks otherwise either hasn't dealt with the police or is a police officer (or is related to one).  The things cops get away with in the United States . . . we'd look at them in another country and call it totalitarianism run amok.  But that couldn't happen here -- oh, no, of course not.  We're the good ol' US of A.

I'm not quite sure what you are asking, but I do believe that all people are created equal.

This is a very interesting & thought provoking question - especially since we all know the common phrase.  However, I don't really have an answer other than agreeing with the fact that a horse is more valuable alive, but then again, cows aren't exactly cheap.

To everybody that does not get this question.\nHe is referring to the novel "1984" by George Orwell.\n\nhttp://summarycentral.tripod.com/1984.htm In 1984, George Orwell warns of the terrifying dangers that man may create for himself in his quest for a utopian society.  It warns that people might believe that everyone must become slaves to the government in order to have an orderly society, but at the expense of the freedom of the people.\n\n\nAnd yes it has been.

One only needs to read "Animal Farm" (by George Orwell). On the surface it appears to be just another fairy tale with animals, but it's actually an allegory about the Communist Revolution. The various characters in the book represent real historical figures or organisational entities.
