Hi Bruce!

Your comments remind of people who think that free drugs and alcohol and
being able to do as they want is 'freedom', when even the drug dealers
laugh and say that those are 'their slaves'. We are free when we need
nothing but what God gives us, and he has only promised food and clothing
- and NOT 20 changes of clothes either! (BTW, I am all for legalizing
drugs, for I believe only we can control ourselves, and that it is wrong
to keep them from truly sick people who could  be helped by them - but
that doesn't make the user 'free')

Once we learn to live without the useless stuff, THAT I call freedom! I am
free because I serve only God, and because i need few thinks to live. I
admit I love the net, for now, but still, I worry about the fact that 'w'
is the 6th letter of the hebrew alphabet, in which letters often represent
numbers (think of those psalms numbered with the letters of the heb alph),
so that www=666. Maybe sometime in the future, people will only be able to
buy and sell through their www ID... (remember apocapypse comments on
this?) for now, I am a bit weak for the net. Husband laughs and says: you
aren't totally free yet! (he lives on very little, and constantly wants to
move back to the Amazon. I have more things, provided almost forcefully by
my parents, so I won't embarrass them by having nothing, I guess. 

Freedom is needing nothing but God.
