The Glory of Autonomy



   I am a Christian and I believe we need each other in the body of Christ. I believe in the "life together" concept of inter-Trinitarian relationships. They are vital in Christianity. No person is an island unto themselves. There is no "lone ranger" Christians. However, in the realm of politics, I believe in the importance of human autonomy. You do not need the State or anyone else to make important life decisions for you. We need to cultivate a skeptical attitude towards the State's ability to meet our basic needs. We need to free ourselves from dependence upon the State and cultivate self-determination in our lives. Live free and die hard.
