From Mahlon D. Manson III

My brother Mahlon says:
Only our Name is Important;
Other attributes Limit us!

Identify yourself by NAME only. Say ”I am Jane Doe" or “I am John Doe.” We should skip all other titles that may limit us in our own minds, or in the mind of others.

Eliminate the title of "child", "man", "woman"; "black," "white", "African American", "Arab", "Asian-American,", "Catholic", "Hindu," "Jew" "Muslim". "preacher, ""Protestant. " "teacher. "

Refuse to be consider yourself a "Generation X-er"; a "Teen-ager", a "Baby Boomer" or a "Senior citizen."

If we just call ourselves "human beings", we won’t limit ourselves in the things we can do. Also, other people won’t see a "box" about us that might, in their minds, seem to limit us.

If each of us will only call ourselves, a "human being,” wars will end. How can people kill others who are human beings like themselves?
