First of all, when Jefferson stated that "All men are created equal, 
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable 
Rights..." he was specifically referring to a citizen's equality 
under the law, and rights which no government may withhold from 
it's citizens. 

It is very clear that all people (or even all men) are NOT equal;  
They vary greatly in height, weight, coloring, size, shape, 
intelligence and almost every other trait or feature that can be 
itemized.  Where we MUST remain equal is in rights as a CITIZEN 
under the law.

It is quite unclear in your statements what you mean by equality.  
Would you please clarify?

Is this truly a forum for the free exchange of knowledge and ideas, 
or just another thinly diguised mono-philosophical means of promoting 
a one-sided political agenda?

I would be quite interested in seeing a list of your "Professors" along 
with a snapshot profile of their political beliefs and their actual 
level of participation in the "teaching" process.  Does such a list 
exist?  If so, please post it.

I await,

Bob Faw
