And now a word or two from Spinoza..........

"Laws which prescribe what everyone must believe, and forbid men to say or write anything against this or that opinion, are often passed to gratify, or rather to appease the anger of those who cannot abide independent minds."

"The most tyrannical of governments are those which make crimes of opinions, for everyone has an inalienable right to his thoughts."
-Baruch Spinoza
