Which is unfortunate, really, because the concept of giving up small freedoms in favor of larger ones is central to most religions. I remember hearing almost the exact example you used (giving up the freedom to drive wherever we want) in a seminary lesson once. The seminary teacher who gave that lesson is in administration at BYU now. Maybe I should forward this to him. -Dan /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
