Governments are appointed by God, ultimately, to restrict evil. The difficulties there are more than worth what would happen if there were none. Absolute freedom cannot exist in secular affairs; only relative freedom.

Relative to what or whom? We can't be vague about freedom or else the Leftist tyrants will be more than happy to fill in the blanks for us which they have done for decades.

We need to get real clear about freedom because freedom is what the Left is desperately trying to rob us of. Freedom is the issue of the day and maintaining freedom requires "eternal vigilance".

Here, we are talking about POLITICAL FREEDOM. The Declaration of Independence (DofI) addressed the issue of political freedom very well. We are born with unalienable rights of "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."

So back to my question: what do you mean by "relative freedom"? I would abandon that vague term "relative" in reference to freedom because to Leftist tyranny, everything is relative and negotiable including your God-given rights.

So how do we in America define our political freedom? It is our inalienable rights, our individual freedom, PROTECTED by the governance of the Rule of Law of the U.S. Constitution rather than the Rule of Man. That in order to secure such protection, we the people and the states have transferred and delegated certain expressed, enumerated, and limited rights and powers to the federal govnemt.

The issue of the day is the recovery of our Free Constitutional Republic and the Constitution as the supreme Rule of law against the feds who are probably 80% unconstitutional.

So although political freedom is not "absolute" it is CLEARLY defined as that which is outside the Constitution as confirmed by the Ninth and Tenth Amendments. The feds, meawhile, have gone way beyond their constitutionally delegated and enumerated powers and have usurped our individual freedoms. The great need in America today is for the average citizen to gain an understanding of THEIR Constitution as written and originally understood and intended.

My website https://sonsofconstitutionalliberty.com/ currently under construction, is dedicated to that. Take a look. More to come. Let me know what you think

Relative to the absolute that only God has.

I just want to ask one question. What role have you given God in your scenario? A real genuine God who will work miracles of giving to those willing to glorify Him for it.

That’s the only absolute freedom there is.

If you haven’t bothered with God... why should I bother with your theory? Your theory is only vague words slung around.
