There are Rules of Being Human??

I actually find it hard to believe that someone made a list of RULES of being human. RULES? Since when does a person have to follow rules to be considered a human? How can there be a list of rules to follow to be considered human if there are so many unique people living on Earth? At best, this is a list of statements that people agree with or disagree with. Being human means that you think for yourself, you have compassion towards others, and that you are charged with responsibility for your own actions; it is not a list; however, the items on the list are valid. For example, the first thing on the list is that you will receive a body and, weather you like it or not, its yours to keep. This is painfully true; what you get is what you get, but this is hardly a rule of being human. This is a reminder that you need to treat your body and the gift of life with dignity and reverence. Not everyone listens to this reminder, though, and they are still considered human! Are you still human if you have tattoos? Yes. Are you still human if you have piercings? Yes. Are you still human if your body takes constant abuse like that of an MMA fighter? Yes. So, to sum this up, this list of rules for being human should not discourage you or make you change your ways to conform to this list; it is merely someone's opinion. Remember, every person is unique and every person has amazing qualities that make them who they are.
