And some people believe humans are equal. We are all equally good, productive and smart. It simply is not so. Some people are smarter than others. Some people are more energetic than others.

That statement is unsupportable, you could say that our worth is indeterminate but thats kind of silly as someone would probably be willing to do it. It would be better to say we our all equally worthy of the Opportunity and Resources to be successful.
No, a human life is a human life. I am as of much worth as a human being as Bill Gates. But at the same time, the homeless person who has to degrade himself by eating out of dumpsters is of the same worth as me - or Bill Gates. Otherwise, the NTs who see us Aspies as less than them may very well be right, and I refuse to accept that.

But any of that makes someone superior, or of more worth, than somebody else?
