Liberty Will Never Perish

One of the most moving and awe inspiring speeches of all time. Regardless of political identity and ideology, the vast majority of people in our country and beyond want to live in a society described in this epic speech. We simply have different ideas about how to build and nourish such a truly civilized civilization.

I happen to be a Libertarian. However, I acknowledge the fact that libertarians don’t have a monopoly on good ideas; folks from across the political (and non-political, of course) spectrum care about individual liberty and love for one’s neighbors.

Here at Healing Our World, everyone is welcome to sing their own song of Liberty, Love and Peace…

To those who can hear me, I say – do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed – the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish. …..

In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written: “the Kingdom of God is within man” – not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people have the power – the power to create machines. The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
