...indeed i will exchange the information i know, and as for wanting cars and women and things, there is nothing wrong in that; it is the plunder, and it remains true, the occupiers at the Occupation on Ledras St., are the slim link we have to Unity against the corruption and Ignorance we are subject to, even in our daily lives, because it is possible that there are a few who have the Agenda and who choose to exploit the rest of us, resisting change by manipulating fear.
...Panicos the only Freedom I discussed is the Freedom of Cyprus, and the Cypriot People. indeed there is a higher level and many levels, more broadly speaking, you speak of a Freedom within, all of this is a matter of choices, that is the hell, good things like a commitment to Universal Principals do not come easily, having a soul well lit either. again i applaud these militants who have found a way to educate themselves and the community that surrounds them.
...Freedom is to serve.
What don't you agree with? The interpretation or the church's doctrine?
