re: "freedom isn't free". This raises a good point that is acutely ignored by Americans:
>From whence comes life? * other life TAKEN * accumulated life force given in the act of REPRODUCTION * new life force made (and held) in the act of love without reproduction, an act of FUSION, I'll argue, * GOD Any other sources? I think not. So the end-point of liberatarian ideals, like capitalism, on their own, I believe would end in entropy. Now on that last point, I will argue that GOD is the only way to avoid heat death of the universe, by giving back to GOD, it creates an ecosystem of sorts: man -> god -> organic life -> food. The reason this works physically is that man's consciousness add order, through perception and cognition, to the otherwise dissipative affects of using energy. Conclusion: There is no way to avoid heat death without GOD recycling things. Any thoughts?
