More idiocy from people who don’t understand that God likely has a reason for us all being different-and I think it probably has something to do with accepting and respecting one another for who we are as individuals, rather than as part of a race or ethnic group...

If you are interested-the late Ira Levin wrote about one possible scenario involving the manipulation of genetics to produce a racial sameness-”This Perfect Day” was written in the mid 60’s, but his take on the ultimate consequences that result when humans are believed to be docile, and one size is supposed to fit all seems to me even more relevant today than it was when the author imagined it. I just loaned my copy to my compadre and employer, and he says he can hardly put it down to go to sleep. It is a great futuristic thriller, and you can get it at Amazon for less than $20.

Even some leftists don’t think equality can be legislated.
