All man are created equal, but nobody is born a man.?

Question: All man are created equal, but nobody is born a man!.!?

mkay, I said that earlier to see what was said, and what others thought of it!. But my main point wasn't seen as I assumed!. Anyway, I was wondering now several things, but the main thing is!.

If nobody is born a man, then nobody is equal right!? Going into manhood, still doesn't mean your equal!. What is man hood, and for that matter what do you think of this over all, I never heard anyone else say it, but I'm sure it's been said before, it's one of those "quiet phrases"!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well nobody is born a man/woman, but when you become that certain age you gain the rights of a man/woman, as when you are born, you have no rights as of yet, the person who controls your rights are your caretakers (mom and dad or another guardian)!. As for what is manhood/womanhood!. Manhood or Womanhood is the the part of life where a boy or girl go into that part of life where they can fend for their self without help from parents or guardians and are at the age where they could be ready to get married, or have kids!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

First: "Man" refers to the animal, including young, old, babies, males, females!.
Secondly, a baby boy is called a "man-child"!.
Thirdly, the Constitution of the United States was (and is) saying that everyone is born equal under the law!. Period!. No exceptions, no exclusions!.
It does NOT mean "manhood"; it is referring to Man (Mankind), the human race!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

All man are created equal, -Means all humans deserve equal rights!. I has nothing to do with the qualities of the person but their rights as a human!.

but nobody is born a man!.!? -I thought you meant all fetuses are female until testosterone is released in the womb!.

If nobody is born a man, then nobody is equal right!?
The phrase "all men are created equal," does not refer to adulthood, but to HUMANHOOD!. A baby isn't a human!?

And!.!.!.What the hell is a "quiet phrases!?"Www@QuestionHome@Com

Probably it doesn't refers to gender!. It could means that all men are created equal in some ways but you're probably wondering why it doesn't include women, or it doesn't says all humans are created equal!. It is because when these phrase was developed women didn't have any right and actually they were considered inferior!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hmm, interesting question xD

When speaking of "man" it's not speaking of a male being!. It's speaking of humans themselves (Female included)!.

In the Bible it says were are all children of God, and all equal in his eyes!.

Manhood starts from the time you're born a male!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i would think that since it takes a sperm and egg to create a person, who eventually becomes a man than what you are saying is wrong, they are created from dna male and female!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

As in all of man kind- the human race!. Every Human is created equal but then its up to you to do the rest!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

1) The opening of the Declaration of Independence states as follows:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness"

2) When making the case that slavery went against the deepest commitments of the American nation, President Lincoln relied on the Declaration of Independence (the most famous eg!. can be found in the Gettysburg Address):

" Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal!."

3) And, Martin Luther King's 'I Have a Dream' speech mentioned:

"'We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal!."

Why did the "all men are created equal" phrases being invoked in the examples above!?
They served as rallying calls to remind us of the unalienable rights of men to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness!Www@QuestionHome@Com
