You cannot have Liberty in this world without what you call Moral Virtue, and you cannot have Moral Virtue without the slavery of that half of the human race who hate what you call Moral Virtue.

What about the case in which the moral virtue includes being against the idea of slavery? I think the statement was made as a pondering question and is not truth in any form.

i do not agree with Willie Drake..hey..i`m allowed to. I think the quote should stop at the first moral virtue. I don`t think that it is true.

The statement itself is obviously a sarcastic exaggeration, but it may be true in spirit \(to the most ruthless and cynical of folk)

All Christians believe in the Bible, thus all Christians believe in two separate classes of human beings.

to some extent...
but with the way the world is going...I'd have to say we just all have to be responsible for ourselves and make our future and existence. The only one you can truly control is yourself.

this statement is ambiguous. it can be interpreted in many different ways, i like it and i hate it. so what if people believe in it, especially since most wouldn't even understand it. **** it
