Are all men created equal?

You can choose to be ignorant, or you can choose to not be ignorant. Unfortunately it is far too easy to be ignorant. That choice defines what you do for the rest of yuour life. I know it's not a formal choice made, it's made the influence of yur environment, your personality, & other factors, I believe this choice can be changed, but it's not easy.
I hope your'e not insinuating that all non-theists must be ignorant because they dont believe the same as you.. ;)

Ignorance is something to be avoided, but even a lack of ignorance doesnt guarantee knowledge of the truth. There are ignorant theists, as well as ignorant non-theists. Likewise, both theists and non-theists can be open-minded, yet still maintain their separate belief systems.

Men are supposed to be equal, but someone came up with the great idea of controlling others, and it all went to crap.

No I'm most definetly not, I know many atheists & agnostics who have perfectly good reasons for their choices & I respect them for that, as long as you question your beliefs & form a conclusion based on your logic & reason then any conclusion you come to will not be ignorant, it may not be right (not that anyone can say what it right), it may not be clever, but the initial questioning of your beliefs is the ending of ignorance, & the ultimate finding of truth is the enlightenment, whatever your truth is, even if your truth is that there is no truth. Anyway my brain hurts, I hope you got what I was intending to put across.
