a civilized society can't exist without some kind of government, some order. THE LARGER THE GOVERNMENT, THE LESS FREEDOM WE HAVE.....as Reagan said, "when government expands, liberty contracts". THE MORE RACES THAT CONGREGATE TOGETHER (DIVERSITY), THE LESS FREEDOM ALL THE RACES HAVE. The enemy by having the different races congregate WANT to cause racial strife, destroy our country through division. . All the races were born as they are.. The languages were changed for just the reason that is happening now...a one world order, the Beast in the Bible, a one world economic system. You can see it happening today....

In days long past, this is the kind of person you'd find standing on a atreet corner preaching hellfire and damnation, and everyone would have called him a prophet.
Nowadays you see these people raving on the street corner, and everyone calls them "loonies."
Reagan was not the font of wisdom, LSD.
How do YOU know what "God's" reason for creating different languages was?
How do YOU know that the beast in Rev. is a "one world economic system?"
All I see happening here is the ranting of a delusional, conservative, mental twinkie.
Very funny. In that case, go tell it to large families, the more children YOU have the less freedom OBVIOUSLY, for the Parents, NOT FOR THE CHILDREN(state/citizens). And the more races, the more probabilities of not being an ethnocentric ASSHOLE.
I live in a neighborhood where "the different races congregate," and all this time, I've somehow failed to notice how much it's taken away my freedom.
Oh, no, Mr. Bill! The enemy has hoodwinked me! Thanks, LJD, for letting me see the light.

Uhmm... It's in the bible? Something about building a tower to the sky.
I see your Reagan and raise you an Alan Moore:
"Liar! Slut! Whore! Deny that you let him have his way with you, him with his armbands and jackboots! Well? Cat got your tongue? I thought as much. Very well. So you stand revealed at last, you are no longer my Justice. You are his Justice now, you have bedded another. Well, two can play at that game!
>Sob! Choke! Wh-Who is she, V? What is her name?<
Her name is Anarchy. And she has taught me more as a Mistress than you ever did! She has taught me that Justice is meaningless without Freedom. She is honest, she makes no promises and breaks none. Unlike you, Jezebel. I used to wonder why you could never look me in the eye. Now I know. So goodbye, dear Lady. I would be saddened by our parting, even now, save that you are no longer the woman that I once loved. Here is a final gift. I leave it at your feet. "
You've put a lot of thought into this, almost as much I would, say, picking which chocolate bar to buy.
It always amuses me that most modern conservatives aren't even familiar with Enlightenment era philosophy yet. Look, there's a difference between "natural freedom" and "social freedom". Natural freedom is the freedom one has to kill and rape because you're strong enough to take what you want. Social freedom is the freedom you have within society. It is limited by your own rights, which end where other's rights begin. The government is granted legitimacy by the social contract, the implicit agreement of the governed to follow the rule of law and justice.
The larger the government, the less _natural_ freedom. Social freedom, especially in democratic societies, is either going to be untouched by the size of the government or, in fact, grow (after all, having an army definitely grants one the social freedom of not being killed by threats external).
Now, there are legitimate questions about the point at which government power starts to intrude upon social freedom. Dictatorships and other authoritarian powers have obviously stepped over a certain line. However, it's not obvious where the line is and whether it's only in certain areas. In any case, anybody screaming "MORE GOVERNMENT = LESS FREEDOM" doesn't have two brain cells to rub together.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
