Listen in as Host John Snyder and Co-Host Alexandra Berauer discuss the internal difficulty of governing a nation that has too expansive a view of liberty. With examples from the Walter Hoye Case in Oakland, and the Marriage Amendment in California, the ITPS team will explore the problem of whether express words in the law should trump the implied reach of unenumerated rights. And when implied rights as discovered and asserted by judges and special interest groups trump the express will of the people when it is explicitly stated in legislation, can a republic survive if it is ruled by the whim of lawless judges? Too often freedom gives rise to sloth and indifference because we are caught up in the distractions of a consumer society. We need to be informed upright custodians of our liberty, because it is only with liberty that we can fulfill our natures as creative spiritual beings. Listen in as ITPS discusses the Problem of Liberty.
