Giving a Nod to the Significance of the Day

Readers of The Liberty Sphere include persons from all backgrounds, including Jews, atheists, agnostics, Christian, the deeply religious, and the not-so-religious.  Some are even anti-religion.

We are all united, however, around a few core principles:  maximum individual liberty, the Bill of Rights, the Constitution as the final rule of law in this nation, free enterprise, low taxes, small government, and a strong national defense.

Thus, I rarely write about religious issues from a personal point of view, except on rare occasions.

This is one of those occasions, but I will be brief.

Today is a significant day in the Christian Faith--Good Friday.  This is the day that Jesus Christ was crucified on a cross by the Roman government.  It is called 'Good Friday' because Christians widely believe that in dying, Jesus bore our sins, paid our debts, and paved our way to eternal life in heaven.

This is my faith and testament as well.

I only ask for respect for the views of those of us who hold this day dear.

And a belated 'Happy Passover' goes to my Jewish friends and readers!
