“It is in the name of Jesus, himself become God, that fanaticism ignominiously condemned to the stake men like Giodano Bruno, Vanini, Étienne Dolet, John Huss, Savanarola, and numerous other heroic victims; that the Inquisition ordered Galileo to belie his conscience; that thousands and thousands of unfortunates accused of witchcraft were burnt alive in popular ceremonies; it was with the express benediction of Pope Gregory XIII that the butchery of St. Bartholomew drenched Paris in blood.” MenEvilJesusNamesReligiousAliveBloodConscienceVictimParisStakesHeroicPopeAccusedCeremonyFanaticismWitchcraftInquisitionBenedictionButchery Author:Camille Flammarion

“Racism oppresses its victims, but also binds the oppressors, who sear their consciences with more and more lies until they become prisoners of those lies.

“I think basic disease care access and basic access to health care is a human right. If we need a constitutional amendment to put it in the Bill of Rights, then that's what we ought to do. Nobody with a conscience would leave the victim of a shark attack to bleed while we figure out whether or not they could pay for care. That tells us that at some level, health care access is a basic human right. Our system should be aligned so that our policies match our morality. Then within that system where everybody has access, we need to incentivize prevention, both for the patient and the provider.” ThinkingCarePolicyMoralityConscienceVictimPatientHealth CareBill Of Rights Author:David Katz
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” MayEndsSometimesWisdomGovernmentWould BePoliticalPoliticsReligiousFreedomSleepLibertyMoralConscienceVictimLibertarianTyrannyCrueltyOppressionTyrantsApprovalIntoleranceTormentTheologianSincerelyGood WillGoverningFanaticsFanaticismFreedom And LibertyGood IntentionsExtremistFreedom LibertyProperty RightsLimited GovernmentDemocracies HaveRobbersSelf RighteousOmnipotentLimiting GovernmentLibertarian PartyEconomic FreedomMoralistLimited FreedomAmerica FreedomBusybodiesGood MoralGovernment And PoliticsGovernment PoliticsGovernment TyrannyMoralizingSecurity And FreedomMoralismRobber BaronOppressive GovernmentsHonest Government Author:C.

“The flight from study and awareness is much too common in a world that throws too many confusing pictures to the individual.
