| Blog Name: | Fear of Freedom |
| Url: | http://the-fear-of-freedom.blogspot.com/ |
| Language: | English |
| Topics: | voluntaryism, anarchism, freedom |
| Description: | This blog is dedicated to advancing the cause of the establishment of a truly free society - wherein freedom is defined as "the absence of coercion". The title illustrates the author's belief that the one and only obstacle to freedom is *fear*. The root cause of all coercion is the *choice* that people make to respond to the impulse of fear by seeking to control the actions of others instead of seeking to overcome the fear itself. Only by resisting the temptation to use, support or turn a blind eye to coercion by choosing instead to empathize with the intended target and summoning the courage to overcome the fear of allowing people to be be free can we realize our full potential. |

We can try to silence it by lying to ourselves in various ways but any relief achieved by this me

I believe that moral codes are immoral.They are not only unnecessary but they exist for the purpose of deceiving ourselves into believing that an action we wish to take or have already taken is moral when we know that it is not.True morality is innate and requires no written code.We act morally when we act in harmony with our conscience.We act in harmony with our conscience when our empathy is stronger than our fear because empathy enables us to feel what others feel as if we were them. We do unto others as we would have done unto us.When our fear is stronger than our empathy we act immorally, because when we are consumed by fear w
