Monotheistic religion requires submission. Submission is the opposite of, and incompatible with sovereignty. And existential sovereignty is required for the experience of Liberty.

Most Rhetoric? Excuses.
Most rhetoric consists of the search for excuses with which to justify your reproductive strategy while maintaining the rhetorical pretence of moral objectivity – largely by way of asserting we are all equal in ability and value to one another and possessed of equal incentives. Yet this technique is dependent upon the twin biases of empathy with others to inspire agreement, fear of shaming to disincentivize disagreement.

What we should criticize is holding lands as private ‘hunting grounds’ of the statists, or disallowing non consumptive use.

(I mean, if you support Clinton, I guess you’re just a stupid and a bad person whether you know it or not. If you support Saunders you’re an stupid but good person whether you know it or not. If you support trump your an empirical and cunning person and I have no idea you’re a good or bad person.
I mean, I can’t support George Washington or George Patton or Douglas Mcarthur, so I choose the best of the available choices. )
