How come that when confronted to the simple neutral statement that all people are singular and different from each other, the human brain HAS to create a hierarchy ? [/QUOTE]Exactly. Why does "different" become "better" or "worse"? WHy is the pursuit of money more highly regarded by some than the puruit of happiness.

It's like how humans rate a dogs intelligence by how obedient it is. Yet we would deride a human that slavishly followed the leader as a dog does.
