A grave mistake is made by today’s Western liberals who actually impose on free people the standards of totalitarian regime.

I believe it is a sign of some madness and extreme moral decay when such norms are not only introduced but even discussed. What is wrong with a cross worn on one’s neck? Who and how can it harm?
