While I'm sure they exist, I don't know a single person who claims that there should be equal outcomes.

Not everybody is willing to do what it takes to get what they desire/think they deserve, hence unequal outcomes.

I've never seen a call for equal outcomes as much as equal opportunities.

You aren't paying attention. Ever notice how women bring up the wage gap? That's not about opportunity. That's about outcome. What about constant complaints about the lack of women in various jobs? That's outcome. The lack of women leaders is an outcome issue.

There really aren't any equal opportunity issues for women for things that women actually want to do. Yes, there is a shortage of women coal miners but how many women want to do that?

So when you look around a group of people, you see everyone the same? Each person has the same abilities and interests? Everybody is a brick, not a stone?

what does my opinion have to do with your statement that the Christian god doesn’t like equality?

Who are you to tell me what I believe? Instead of telling, you might try asking - if you care for the truth.

If you believe in equality then you believe in something that has never existed on the planet Earth. So I guess you could call that a fable.

Notice how the believers (in equality) had no problem with all the lies about the Steele Dossier. I would be pretty mad if that happened to me. I wouldn't accept that. I would change news sources.

Fine. In the Bible, the issue is between stones (everybody different) and bricks (everybody equal.) God will not let the Israelites build altars out of brick (hewn or carved stone.) Next, the Tower of Babel was really about the bricks. Nimrod was transforming people from stones into bricks. God stepped in to save the people from being seduced by equality. The mortar that held everything together was materialism.

No it is about opportunity. Women are systematically payed less then men even if they do similar amounts of work. Women are systematically kept out of various jobs because they are women. They aren't given the chances to have the same outcomes as men.

And some people are unable, though willing, to get what they need. No, America is not a magic paradise where anyone who wants to work hard and stay sober can get ahead. It's not even a place where a person who wants a decent job at a living wage can always get one. It could be, but not as long as the party in power dismisses poverty, even working poverty, as due to nothing but a lack of willpower and Christian virtue.

If you believe..
Not exactly asking what I believe but this is a tad bit better than your previous posts telling me what I believe.

Six of one does equal a half dozen of the same. It's no fable that twice two equals four.

Notice how the believers (in equality) had no problem with all the lies about the Steele Dossier.
What I'm noticing is vague accusations against a vast population with whom you seem to have no direct familiarity.

I would be pretty mad if that happened to me. I wouldn't accept that. I would change news sources.
Indeed you should. I don't know who has been feeding you this hogwash about liberals.

I dunno, where I come from bricks are baked clay not hewn stone.

Works best
when we get out there and work for it.

My wife was just going through some of the many awards her father was given.
He taught math for 35 years.

I do not think it is possible to lose something you never actually had to begin with.
TIL that the party which got a majority of votes in elections over the past 4 years never had the support of the general population.

Math is hard, I get it.
