We Are (Not?) The Same

For reasons unknown to me, as I am not a very reasonable person, nowadays I am interested in social experiments. I am trying to understand the difference between different people.

‘Difference between different people’ is another cool phrase to put on a t-shirt. I wish I was a designer.

Uncle Nelson Mandela spent his entire life just to convey the message that we all are one. But, still, some people (perhaps many people) are in doubt. After all, we have successfully managed to divide ourselves in one hundred and ninety-five countries, perhaps, someday they would manage to make it two hundred. I hope not, but who cares about me, I am nobody.

For generations, a tiny portion of humanity has benefited greatly from conflicts and wars. We should not be cruel to them just for the sake of our peace, we should let them sell weapons. And, weapons sell only if there are conflicts and wars which in turn can happen only if there are differences in different people.

Therefore, to support these people, I started a research project to prove that there are indeed differences between different people. You have no idea how many books I have, how many pages I have to shuffle, ah, it was so tiring. From religious books to history books and from history books to Uncle Darwin’s books, I read it all (Who can read that much, lol, I just used Wikipedia and Google).

Sadly, I found out that there is no difference whatsoever between different people. Black, white, colored and Asians and the rest, all are alike. Kindly, note that here the word ‘alike’ is used only for logical and sensible research, by working in the non-sense domain, who knows what the result would be.

Anyway, I felt terrible because I could not help that tiny portion of humanity that believes there is a difference in different people. I felt terrible, as I found out that we are so much alike that by using just a glass of milk and a cookie, it can be proved that there is no difference between different people.

Here is how it goes “Pick a random person in the world, put a glass of milk and a packet of cookies in front of them, and everyone will eventually dip a cookie in the glass,” no exception at all!

We Are Not The Same.
