About Me:
 
The Acton Institute for the Study of Religion and Liberty is named after the great English historian, Lord John Acton (1834-1902). He is best known for his famous remark: "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." Inspired by his work on the relation between liberty and morality, the Acton Institute seeks to articulate a vision of society that is both free and virtuous, the end of which is human flourishing. To clarify this relationship, the Institute holds seminars and publishes various books, monographs, periodicals, and articles.

You said, "We have serious problems with healthcare" (It would be nice to know who I am talking to). Okay, can you propose any solutions that would work?☺

I noticed that you have "The Road to Serfdom" listed among your books. It is as relevant now as it was when it was written. Glad to see there are other thinking people in Michigan.

The west is dying, and our freedom is already almost gone. Yea, right. Let me tell any one that our freedom came from God. Why? So they can take away more of it? That's all that seems ever to happen, and it seems like Jesus hates me.
I don't have any hope for better any longer because Jesus hates me. We've already lost.
The militant atheists are winning all the time.
The bad guys keep on winning.
I think it's over already, and I wish i was wrong about that. I'm pretty sure that God hates me.
