No,b/c some people are born with diseases and live in terrible places or with terrible people.

I agree with this, but in To Kill a Mockingbird all of the african-americans are treated like less than whites in the community. The blacks therfore, make their own community, as shown when calpurnia takes Jem and Scout to church, and even their own way of talking.

I believe, that even now, that some people are not people in other's eyes. One real life example is the civil war. This war was partially because of inequality. Stereotypes also make our society think of some humans as non-humans. Yes, some people are more talented at one thing than others, but we should still see those others as people too. In TKAM colored people are treated pretty poorly (Tom's case).

Back then many people (especially in Alabama) did not treat black people fairly at all. An example in the story is that Nathan immediately shot at what he thought was a black person. Another example in the story is that Atticus is trying to defend Tom in his case but he will probably not win the trial because Tom is colored. A real world example is how colored people had separate bathrooms and sinks than white people. Brendan D.

In To Kill a Mockingbird, the whites and blacks are not equal. They treat each other differently and the whites have all the power. I can show a example of this by blacks and whites having different churches. Calpurnia takes Jem and Scout to church and this shows the separation between the two races. Everyone is created in God's image. All men are created equal and not judged by the colors by their skin. I agree with this statement. Johnathan F.

I believe all men are created equal. I believe this because of what I have been taught as an individual. No matter if you are black, white, Asian, Hispanic, or stripped like a zebra, in God's eyes he made you in his image. That is how people should look at other people. That you are just as human as them. This can connect back to the book because it's like when Atticus taught Jem and Scout to kill a mocking bird is like killing someones human dignity. Collins, T

I believe that all men are created equal overall. Some people may be better at science than you are, but you would balance it out by being better at something then they are. It doesn't matter what gender or race you are, you are equal to the person right beside you. In To Kill a Mockingbird some people did not believe this. Atticus believed that all people were created equal, but a lot of people did not. For example, Jem is better at sports than Scout is, but Scout has a better imagination. Julia W.

I believe that all men are created equal, but sadly, that's not always the case in the way they are treated, especially in TKAM around the time of segregation. Racism is something that most people in Maycomb join in on. Though we've come a long way, today, people are still treated wrongly just because they have a different race or gender. We, as a society, need to work harder to make sure everyone has the same opportunity to succeed. Atticus is trying to teach his children to not fall in that hole of treating others differently just because of some stereotype because all men are created equal. I think that we can all learn some lessons from Atticus and his way of life. Victoria L

I believe that all men are created equal, however there are a few exceptions. What I mean is, all people are created in the same image and likeness. That is what I believe because of my faith and my personal connection. In the text, however, it shows us how people in Maycomb were not all treated equal. The women were treated differently than men, and blacks were treated worse than whites. I do believe that everyone is equal under law, but people have different strengths and weaknesses. The people under law were not equal in TKAM, for example, Atticus' case. I know that in the world today, society tells us that people are superior than others based on color, religion, or likes on a post.

I believe physically we are not created equal, but in the eyes of God we are. The people in TKAM treat the blacks like they are less physically and in God's image. The black people might not be as masculine as some of the whites, but they are both humans and should treat each other equal because Like Atticus told Jem and Scout, killing a mocking bird is a sin and killing or harming someone less equal physically is like killing a defense less mocking bird.
This is the same concept for physical equality even though you may be stronger than someone else you should not take advantage of them. Andre'P.

I agree all people are created equally. I believe this because we are all created in God's image. In TKAM blacks are not treated the same as whites are. We can see this when the people say Nathan Radley shot a black man when he really shot at Jem, Scout and Dill, and when Calpurnia takes Jem and Scout to her church, which is an all black church.

I can agree that all people are created equal because that's the way God created us to be. In To Kill A Mockingbird, people are not treated equally, the town is racist and you can see this because blacks and whites have separate churches. Racism is still in our world today. People are discriminated because of their color and their nationality. Ramey B

I agree with Julia W beacuse it is true that we were all created equal, we are all human. Now we are not all THE SAME. We are all eqaul meaning we are all able to make decisons, breath, blink etc. The talents, uniqueness, and opportunity distibuted amongst us is what makes us different from each other drastically. One person might be able to solve quadratic equations easily while another has trouble solving additon problems. These people are not the same and not equal in this sense, but these people are still equal in the human being sense however. So yes all humans are equal, but not the same. -Luke S

I don't think that all men are created equal because society gives them a class above others, or sometimes below. Black men, sadly, are usually ranked lower than white men because of their color. People still discriminate them, even though they have more freedom than they used to. Society is not fair and will probably never fair, and men will probably never be equal because of that. Some men are homeless, and even though their lives are worth the same in God's eyes, society now, doesn't see them that way. In To Kill A Mockingbird, men are definitely not treated or born equally, and that shows how our society today lives. Ava B

I agree with Ramey in some parts, however, even though God created us to be equal, we aren't always that way because of how others look at us and how we live. Once we enter this crazy society, we are stuck with the judgement and discrimination of others that makes every man not equal. Ava B

i can agree that all men are created equal because God made us all in his image so it would not matter what race or how we act because we are all the same.

I believe that under God's eyes we are all created equally man and women. This is because we are created in God's image, but under the our eyes and the law we are not especially in TKAM. The law then and somewhat now is racist. The black man, Tom Robinson, was falsely accused of a crime for something he didn't do. If Tom Robinson was white in would have been a fair trial. Anna V

I believe that all people are created equal, in God's image and likeness we were created. He did not create one to be better than the other, we all have our differences but God put us here for a reason no matter what we look like, act like etc. But in the book and also in real life we struggle with racism and treating people in a way that is not the kindest just because they don't have the same skin color as us. In To Kill A Mockingbird the people of Maycomb struggle with racism and they all band together when doing it. An example of this would be when Atticus was talked about constantly because he was defending a black man, when all Atticus was trying to do was the right thing. Many people around this time who were black were frowned upon and didn't get the same advantages as a white person did. The world seems like it likes to say that all men are created equal, but everyone continues to judge others because of their skin color. Gabby P

I do think that all people were created equal but at the same time not all people were created equal. Although this does sound confusing, I do have a reasoning. I think that not all people are created equally because not all people are put into the same positions. Some people are born into poverty and third world countries while other people are born into successful families who rely on the income themselves and their families have. At the same time though, all people have the ability AND CHOICE to become a better version of themselves. People who are born in third world countries have the choice to stand for a change and be the action for that change. This is why I have two DIFFERENT opinions on equality.

I agree that all men are created equal because God made us. It doesn't matter to God what race we are or how we look because that is how he created us. Although, we all do not look the same and act the same in our society, everyone is judged and discriminated. It is not the right thing to do but that is how our society is today. In "To Kill a Mockingbird" Atticus believed that no matter what the person's race or how they look everyone is still equal. Some people think that not everyone is equal. Atticus tries to teach his children that it is not right to judge someone or discriminate them because of their race or how they look. Laynie R

I think that all people are created equal, but whether people are treated equally or not is a different situation. There is a lot of racism in our world and it truly does affect people a lot. Some people can't even survive because of their color. It's not their fault that they were born like that, so why do we be mean to them for something they cannot control? In TKAM colored people are extremely stereotyped and its unfair that they are innocent, and they are judged because of their color. -Trevor F.

I agree with Bella because we were created in the image and likeness of God and God made us all equal in the sense that we should all treat others fairly. Being equal is totally different from being the same not everyone acts the same,looks the same, or talks the same but we should never judge someone for that. We were all put on this Earth for a reason and that was to spread the good news not to bring other people down. Izzy F

In To Kill a Mocking Bird the African Americans weer treated poorly and judged for just being who they are. We should never judge people for who they are. Also when Atticus stands up for Tom Robinson he is judged for it because Tom Robinson is an African American but this shows that everyone is a human and we shouldn't judge them we should learn to help everyone that is in need just like Atticus did.

It doesn’t matter if we are a different race, different religion, etc. But what matters most is that we treat ourselves and each other with respect.

While revising my answer, some textual evidence from ""To Kill A Mockingbird" is Tom Robinson's case. Toms example is a prime example of how un-equal this world can treat somebody just because of the color of their skin. A real life example of this can be Rosa Parks sitting on a bus and refusing to get up just because a white woman wanted to sit there. Rosa was not treated equally because of the color of her skin.

I think that all men should be treated equal, although they are not always treated equal whether it be the government or other people giving them disadvantages. All men should be created equal because God called us to love one another, and when someone is not treated as fairly as another, they are not loving everyone the same. Another reason is that God put us on this earth to do great things, and if some of us are not treated equally, we cannot accomplish those things. Erin B.

I agree with Andre' P's answer because we physically were not all created equal. In TKAM people who are African American are NOT treated as well as people who are white. Although this happened in "To Kill A Mockingbird," this also happens in real life and it is very sad to see this happen. In our world today, there have been lots of protest over this issue and lots has justice ha been made because of how big of an issue it is. It is also very sad to see how easily a person is judged just because of the color of their skin or their heritage/background.

I agree with Brendan about how people were very racist in Maycomb. However, I don't think Nathan was shooting because he thought it was a black person. He shot because he thought someone was stealing something. It was the other townspeople who thought it was a black person. That is what shows how they are racist. They thought someone was trying to steal something and was just like, "it must have been a black person." Julia W.

I agree with Gabby P because today, we still struggle with the problem of racism, even though God created all men equal. In "To Kill A Mockingbird", they are treating the blacks different because of their skin, like when Atticus was defending Tom Robinson in his court case. Atticus knew he wouldn't win the trial because the people of the town did not respect the blacks nearly as much as the whites, but he still did it because it was the right thing, and in that scene Atticus showed his lack of racism and judgement of the blacks despite what everyone else thought of them. If God calls us to love all men the same, then we should not treat blacks any different than white people. Erin B.

I don't think all people are created equal because everybody has different lives and are going through different situations in their lives. Some people can be in successful lives and others may not be. Some evidence from "To Kill a Mocking Bird" is how the people treat others just by the difference of their skin. "There's something in our world that makes men lose their heads—they couldn't be fair if they tried. In our courts, when it's a white man's word against a black man's, the white man always wins." This shows the problem with racism in "To Kill a Mocking Bird". Allyson F

Everyone is created equal. No man or woman is brithed a special way that makes them more important than others. Many people work for their high respect. When God looks at us at the end of the day he sees that we are all made in the image and likeness of God. God would not rather one person over the other. At the end of the day we should not care how popular we are, we should only care how God looks at us.

I agree with this because we are all created in God’s likeliness and image. Everybody is equal because God is the one at the end of the day that loves everyone the same and doesn’t prefer people of a certain race over someone that’s in his favorite race. God wanted us to be different so that we could see God in everyone, he didn’t do it so we can be judgy. He made us equal so that we can realize what we do in our own lives. Talents are just part of who you are- it’s not an advantage, some people just make it stereotypical and it really isn’t. It should be seen as this person is amazing just as everyone else is. Everyone has flaws, no one is perfect. Equal and perfect are two different things. - Gabby R

I agree. In my eyes, I see that God made us all in his likeliness and his image. He wanted us to be like him, if everyone took after him we would be equal. Being equal doesn't justify if you are perfect- without flaw. If you are equal it shows how you are among others. I think all men are equal because we are all open to the same thing, we can all be loved the same way by God. God is our number one ruler- he matters the most. Because he matters most, his love is the greatest and if everyone has God's love no matter what you do, its considered equal. Some people aren't treated fairly but that isn't Gods fault, its either you who put yourself in bad situation or people are just being cruel. Being perfect and being treated fairly is not the same as being equal. At the end of he day it all boils down to God, the one who made everyone fair and equal. It matters how he looks at us not how other people look at us.

I agree with Gabby P because she says that it doesn't depend on how we are looked at but whats inside us and how God created us. She also states that in the book they worry about color of skin a lot and if you think about it, if you trust in God and listen you understand that its just a skin tone and it shouldn't separate anyone, we should still be treated equal.

I think everyone is created equal, but not treated as such. An example of this in everyday life is within schools or the workplace. A lot of snap judgements are made, causing unfair treatment. An example in the book is Tom Robinson, who doesn't seem to have any evidence against him except a white person's word. I agree with Ramey B and Gabby P, namely when Gabby wrote about how racism affects views on equality.

I believe all men are created equal. I believe this because of my religious beliefs, which are that everyone is equal in God's eyes. Each person deserves to have just as many rights as the person next to them, and nobody should deny those rights from them. It is not that way in "To Kill a Mockingbird". In the town of Maycomb almost everybody is racist, and kids make fun of Scout just because her father is defending a black man.

I believe that not all men are created equal because some people are born with disabilities or are born into poverty. There is nothing you can do about that if you were born with it. But I do believe that all people should be treated equally no matter what. Everyone may not look or act the same, but we should still all treat each other the same. An example in the book is they do not treat blacks the same which I believe is not right and they should. They act different towards them.

I think that we are all born equal, but we can change our value and that our value is sometimes determined by others. I believe we can change our value if we want to do something about it. If we aren't happy about what we think our value is then we can change it. I do also think that our value is determined by others. You could think you are amazing, but if everyone else thinks you are okay, then your true value is probably just ok. It is sad, but it is what I believe is true. I think God made us all equal, but by human tendencies our value changes and isn't really our choice. Your value can be based on different things as well. Some people might base someone's value of our their money, their accomplishments, or their personality. We can change other's minds about us. It isn't easy, but it is possible. Evan C.

I agree with Gabby R. I think she makes a good point about how we are all equal, because God loves us all the same. I believe that this is a good point. It makes sense and at the end of the day all that matters is God and our faith. Evan C.

I also agree with Ashlyn S. I think the fact about how God's opinion is the only one that matters is true. I like how she included how some people try to receive respect and a high value, but God opinions is the only thing that matters.

I think that we are all born equally in God's eyes. Some people are stronger, faster, and smarter than others, but in the end none of that will matter. We can all be equal just some people have to work a little harder than others at certain things. I believe that if you want to be something or be able to do something you can do it just with work.

I agree with Mary-Ainsley because everyone is born into their parents situation. Some people are born into wealthy families and some are born into homelessness. By society we aren't treated equally which I believe that everyone should be treated equally. Aiden B

I think that no men are created equal. I think that some men have more brains and are smarter then others. some men are stronger than others, and some men think different things than others. In TKAM they are all judging Atticus for helping the black man but i think that black men and white men make different choices but they shouldn't be judged for it because no men are equal. Gabbie B

In god's eyes, we were all created equal. But also we weren't, because people with disabilities or diseases cannot partake in most things that people with no disabilities or illnesses can. But that doesn't mean that people with disabilities cannot find certain things they like to do.

all people should be treated right. there shouldn't be someone not treated the same because you don't know if that could be you some day so don't treat them like that because you could be in the same boat one day.
