| In the end we’re all the same. | |
| -- Ben Kweller, rock musician |
Well, I guess this depends on your views about the afterlife if indeed there is one. Heaven, Nirvana, worm food, somebody's gonna be right and if the truth is that there is nothing then nobody is going to know. Weird, eh?
While equality in death is debatable, it shouldn't be that way in life. We're all people, and it doesn't make sense that we've divided the world into "Us" and "Them" (Pink Floyd, anyone?). We all have the same basic drives. We want food, shelter, clothing, companionship, and freedom. It all comes down to these things, no matter who you are.
We don't need to wait until we die to be the same. Even with the wide array of personalities out there, at the heart of it, we're all the same now.

Isn't it true that biologically all humans are something like 99.9% the same and it's only our defects and superficial details that make us 'unique'? I think I read that in a comic book so it's probably not true, but it makes you wonder...
Actually, I'm quoting Warren Ellis' Crecy for my English paper. So comic books count! Always believe what you read in comics!
I believe that. It's that .01% that makes us all weird.
