No one but an idiot believes everyone is actually equal. You know that some people are better at mathematics than others, some are better at baseball than others, etc. If you are unaware of these facts, you must be brain dead.
The social equality that is desirable is as Chad32 describes it. People should have equality of opportunity, and people's needs should be equally regarded by society.
Pyrrho, meet Woodie.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
