Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Tell me again why we should celebrate England almost becoming a Theocracy by force? How exactly does that line up with free or libertarian ideals?
What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?
-- Ayn Rand, Anthem (Chapter 11)
It has nothing to do with libertarian ideals. Does that answer your question?Originally Posted by asmo

To be fair it was really more about turning England from one flavor of theocracy to another (actually back to the original form of theocracy it was before ole Henry decided he wanted a divorce)
I guess killing government officials is it?How exactly does that line up with free or libertarian ideals?
What I find funny about it is that most of the kids that don the masks and march in the streets are atheists that HATE all even semi-religious people.
Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".
