在一個真正已啟蒙的文明社會裡,自由並非一種「權利」,而是一個「事實」。
聽神談【關於「自由」】
自由,無論在什麼地方,是一種「生命的基本觀念」和「生命的基本建構」,
(Freedom is the basic concept and construct of life everywhere.)
因為自由是神的基本本質。
凡藉由任何方式在減損自由、限制自由、侵害自由或剝奪自由的系統,
都違逆生命本身的系統。
自由並非人類靈魂追求的目標,而是人類的本質和天性!
靈魂天生是自由的。
因此,缺乏自由的生命違反了靈魂的天性。
在真正已啟蒙的社會,自由並非一種「權利」,而是一個「事實」。
它是一種「本來就是」的狀態,而非某種「被給予」的東西。
自由並非被授予的,而是理所當然的。
(Freedom is not granted, but rather, taken for granted.)
摘自《與神為友》第8章
Freedom is the basic concept and construct of life everywhere, because freedom is the basic nature of God.
All systems which reduce, restrict, impinge upon, or eliminate freedom in any way are systems which work against life itself.
Freedom is not the goal of the human soul, but its very nature. By nature the soul is free. Lack of freedom is, therefore, a violation of the very nature of the soul.
In truly enlightened societies, freedom is not recognized as a right, but as a fact. It is something that is, rather than something that is given.
Freedom is not granted, but rather, taken for granted.
