Superiority

The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.

It seams people always want to consider themselves superior to others.  Winning a sports title is often followed by the chant "We are Number One".  This would indicate that "we" are superior to all others.

There are many characteristics of people that could be used to indicate superiority.

Which of the following could be used to indicate superiority?
  • Color of eyes
  • Color of hair
  • Baldness
  • High weight
  • Thin build
  • Cost of cloths
  • Volume of voice
  • Salary
  • Frugality
  • Position on Organization chart
  • Slave owning
  • Freedom from slavery
  • Possessions
  • Tall height
  • Short height
  • Great great great grandfathers triumphs
  • Great great great grandfathers persecution
  • Mother wears army boots
  • Father can beat your father
  • High grades in school
  • Low work in school
  • Age
  • Health
  • Intelligence
  • Attainment of a degree
  • Having servants
  • Serving others
  • Race
Is it important to feel superior to others?

If everyone considers themselves superior to others then are they all racist?

Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, "Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all." Mark 9:35
