Liberty and Freedom are complex concepts. They go back to religious ideas of
Free Will and are related to the Ruler Mystique implicit in absolute monarchs.
Without absolute monarchs patterned after the Old Gods and ruling by the grace
of a belief in religious indulgence, Liberty and Freedom would never have gained
their present meaning. These ideals owe their very existence to past examples
of oppression. And the forces that maintain such ideas will erode unless
renewed by dramatic teaching or new oppressions. This is the most basic key to
my life.
