I believe that the Spirit of Freedom is the Spirit of God. I believe that our freedoms are inherently attached to our God given agency. Without the ability to exercise our agency we can not progress. To be forced to do what is right takes away our agency and takes away our own ability to figure out what is right or what is wrong.
How we see freedom often times shows our attitude towards it. Do we see what freedom has done for others? Or do we look at what freedom has done to others? Do we see what freedom will do for others? Or do we see what freedom may do to others? How do we use the freedoms we have? Do we even know what freedoms we do have?
I personally choose to see what freedom does for the majority of those who live within its influence. Freedom, however, is like money or a gun, used in the right hands is a blessing to the barer and a benefit to those around them. In the wrong hands it is a curse to themselves and a danger to those around them.
Where much is given much is expected... It is our responsibility to protect our own agency by doing what we know is right. It is our responsibility protect our freedoms by understanding them and by electing those who will defend our rights. And it is our responsibility to warn others of those things which will destroy both our agency and our freedoms.
The mind of Milligan is a place where I will share my ideas, my interests, my concerns, and I may even give away free advice, in other words I may just give you a piece of my mind. Take it or leave it. It is what I think.
