It is not what believers say they believe, it is what they DO that proves what they believe. There is no one on Earth who is the spiritual superior of another. Not one.

The power and privileges won by free will uses of fear, force and violence are hard to give up.

Mere equality is intolerable for millions, and the fight for ALL human rights goes on. I get it. I'm with you.

Know that I've personally and professionally worked for human rights all my life. I've got plenty of stories that span decades.
