I originally posted the following information and commentary onto my Facebook wall…
The Right to Ignore the State:

(Herbert Spencer) The Right to Voluntary Outlawry: As a corollary to the proposition that all institutions must be subordinated to the law of equal freedom, we cannot choose but admit the right of the citizen to adopt a condition of voluntary outlawry. If every man has freedom to do all that he wills, provided he infringes not the equal freedom of any other man, then he is free to drop connection with the state — to relinquish its protection, and to refuse paying toward its support. It is self-evident that in so behaving he in no way trenches upon the liberty of others; for his position is a passive one; and whilst passive he cannot become an aggressor.
My Commentary: “I never hear the word ‘escape’
Without a quicker blood
A sudden expectation
A flying attitude!” – Emily Dickinson

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Daily Anarchist,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…
My Commentary: As an Individual, I simply have no place in my life for organized religion. Collectivism, coercion, death-worship and/or human sacrifice are absolutely incompatible with my existence!
“COERCION is the central principle of all government”
The following correspondence originally took place upon the Facebook wall of an acquaintance, after she shared artwork from here…
Tara M.: As long as there are exams, there will be prayer in school……
“Prayer was never banned from our public school. In fact, the courts have repeatedly upheld the right of student prayer (it just can’t be led in any way or required by the school). We trust our teachers to provide education, not indoctrination. Religion is a freedom. Let’s keep it that way.”
Rayn: Indeed! Nonetheless, so long as teachers in US public schools continue to lead students in reciting the “Pledge of Allegiance,” they are still guilty of indoctrination! 🙂
