Every day I see people all around me who derive so much of their lives from their own prejudices it makes me sick. Students become hostile to one another almost overnight. The reasons for this are always different. Another perfected on life, another religion, or, the classic prejudice, a different skin color.

Just because they have a different perspective on life, a different religion, or a different skin color, doesn't mean that they aren’t normal. In fact, since each of us look, think, and altogether live our lives differently than everyone else, even if it is you or someone else that considers you normal, the fact is, no one, not one, single, tiny, insignificant, blundering, one of us mortals, is normal.

Absolutely! Normal is a description that doesn't belong in any description of human beings. Like clouds in the sky, there is no human that has an exact copy.
