When Liberty Enslaves

There is a common experience between our experiences today and those before the Civil War many years ago. The effect of the intersection of faith and politics during these two experiences has had on our elections and our governance is uncanny in their similarities. Both times an election insurrection was stopped by the sitting vice president.Both times had people of the same faith on both sides of the social issues of the day claiming God's favor and willing to divide the nation over those competing positions.

Part 1 of this writing focuses on the Civil War era and how liberty centered around the issue of equality. Some people of faith believed all men were equal, some did not. Part 2 focuses on our present times and how liberty centers on the sanctity of life concerning abortion and gun control. Some in our nation feel enslaved by the liberty of others. Part 3 describes methods for closing the divide in our nation beginning with the faith communities.
