Question

All men are created equal, but as equal as they are created, its up to them to choose whether they will stay equal or not. Some will be better than others, others will be better then some.

Answer 1

People are not created equal in any sense.  For any human trait - height, strength, speed, intelligence - people fall along the bell curve.  If you are genetically short, weak, and slow, you will never make it in the NBA, no matter how hard you work.  If you are born with an IQ of 60, you will never be a doctor, no matter how hard you study.  

That said, for two people who start out roughly equal, the hard-working person will be more successful than the lazy person, but even basic personality traits such as work ethic are influenced by your genes, so luck plays a role there as well.  (check out this article for an example: http://www.time.com/time/health/article/...

When Jefferson said "All men are created equal" he was talking about equal rights in the political sense.

Answer 2

All men are not created equal, but it's a nice thing to say. Some are more violence prone, some are smarter....not exactly EQUAL.

Answer 3

All men are created equal.  What one man can do, another can do.  Some may have different talents, but one can do if he/she has the will to do.
