A sort of fear towards anything that is "different" hovers between breaths of humanity forever. In ancient Greece
crippled children were left abandoned to die in the arms of a dangerous nature. With the rise of Christianity, homosexuality becomes a taboo, a crime and who was so sick of epilepsy was possessed, the deaf could not receive the sacraments, in addition to baptism, because they were considered unable to keep the promises which are considered eternal infants.
Continuing on the path of history is impossible not to mention those who lost their lives or have been exiled for their way of thinking "different" from what the Church or the power they wanted people to think. And then the destruction of the Second World War that saw Jews, communists, homosexuals, people of color, the crippled, suffering in the prisons of pain and tears in my eyes watching Death, Death mocking and malignant accusing them of being "different."
Even today we see storms of violence that railed against "not normal". Prejudices
absurd plugged the eyes of reason. There were people who told me that "all the sick people are evil, because they feel different."
I think it's the yardstick you use in determining what is different or what is normal and does not work at all. Being attacked in the canons of physics "perfect", considering the higher their belief than others. Personally, I think we should pause to reflect on the fact that every human being has a soul and loves, hates, wants, thinks, regardless of their physical appearance, by their religion from their political or sexual orientation or religious beliefs, by their own conditions health.
If only we strive to free our minds from the prison of prejudice would understand that humanity is not the keyword "diversity" but EQUALITY.
