No, all people should be treated FAIRLY

I've just finished re reading Orwells Animal Farm : A superb little book which offers the concept of the equality of the creation of all animals as a revoultionary concept. And of course the rules get changed to fit the circumstances, the corruption of power corrupting. The sad truth is that people are not equal, the sad truth is that life is unfair. Oh boy, it is so very unfair, especially to those least able to accept being unfairly treated. And so I am sorry to say it matters not how fair or equal you want things to be: The problem the Q offers is in the nature of the word 'People'.... People are not equal and people, some of them at least, are horribly unfair. So fairness & equality are not really in the equation, in my, jaundiced, view. But I would reccommend you reading Mr Orwells sound book, written during WW2 about Stalin really, it's not very long and it's a delight, in fact it is a great childrens book in a way, apart from the ending, which gives light to his theme, which is that Humankind is no better than pigs. It simply says that the pigs, replacing the humans in control, are then even worse for the animals in general, and that the great ideals they set out to achieve are soon forgotten & changed out of all recognition. Such is life....

It depends on the reason they not being treated the same.

Not giving a person a job in a school because of the colour of their skin would be wrong.

Not giving the same person a job in a school because they are in the habit of sexually abusing children would be right.

The question is too general to have a "right reply."

Theoretically and legally, yes. In practice, if you value, say, Tom Cruise as much as you value your spouse, most people would say there's something wrong with you, or at least something wrong with your marriage.

I am very sorry you feel the need to ask this question. I would think it would be self explanatory why people need to be treated equally. We are all human whether we are male, female, black, white, or purple and each person has a right to have to live without prejudice, discrimination, and to grow/learn to their fullest potential. No one is better than anyone else.

In the eye of the law, each person is equal, with rights to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." It was a move away from the European, etc. cultures of the times where class, wealth and property ownership affected the rights of people to vote, be represented and treated by the law. Religion, race, age, wealth and other factors are still issues that citizens themselves struggle to accept and make work, but the vision remains.

In theory all members of society are equal under the law; in practice, there are lingering inequalities. We are all imperfect human beings living in an imperfect society.
