"Are you going to be this dense when you are questioned at the Final Judgement on the issue of what Thomas Paine was talking about when he said:"

Do you really think that God will question us regarding the words of Thomas Paine? Will he have time to question us on Patrick Henry and Adam Smith as well?

"He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself."

I take it that you wish to be the worlds' policeman and save all from oppression then...Iran and Syra next,,,Cuba and China...it will be interesting to see if you truely believe those words.

No, I don't have the resources to defend every victim from being robbed and murdered by their governments. And if by "policeman," you mean a government worker who extracts money by force from people to supposedly right wrongs (local or global), then you've got some thinking to do before you face the Final Judgement too.

Do you not think the plain principle neatly summarized in Paine's statement will not be an issue when those who victimized their neighbors via drug and tax laws are Finally held responsible?
