The Problematic Inward Vessel

Our future both as a nation and as a Church depends in large measure upon knowing what our real threats are. The Book of Mormon tells us in plain language-and through repeated examples-that our biggest threats are amongst us.

Liberty and Socialism Cannot Co-exist!

I recently met a man who claims to be a libertarian with socialist leanings (when restrained by pre-determined parameters). I laughed. That's like saying you're all blue and all yellow, but you're not green. Some things just don't mix.

CPAC Anyone?


Upon a Sure Foundation

Society must have a firm foundation - one built upon trust in God and not the arm of flesh. 

Specialization, Inequality, and Entrepreneurship

How do you convince someone through a media sound bite that Obama's new Public Works program is really a Public Waste program and that his New Deal II is in reality a New Disaster?

Against All Enemies

The oath taken by members of the military is to defend the Constitution against ALL enemies - including those from within our borders.   Citizens must also be vigilant in defending the Constitution against the threats posed by government officials.

O That I Had a King!

King Benjamin, a man in whom all political power and authority was concentrated, labored just like you and me to support himself so as not to tax his subjects. O that I had a King!I wish that I was a royal subject, not to any king, but to one in particular.  ...

We may argue on grounds of reason, and the same result will follow: for law is order, and good law is good order; but a very great multitude cannot be orderly.

About LDSFreemen.com

We believe that God has given to every individual the unalienable right to Life, Liberty, and Happiness (Property) as part of the Plan of Salvation. Any violation of these rights, whether by a single individual or a group of people (i.e. government), is immoral and against the will of God. The only just and proper role of government is to protect these rights from the aggression of others.

The Founding Fathers were inspired men whose efforts secured a society with the greatest enjoyment of liberty in modern times. The political environment of freedom they created allowed for the Church of Jesus Christ to be restored and thrive in the last days. Unfortunately, the principles upon which America was founded are under constant attack by "kingmen" (Alma 51:5) all around us. Many Latter-day Saints, either knowingly or unknowingly, support those who would destroy our Lord's work in the latter days.

We seek to educate others about the truth in hope that many more will "awake to a sense of [our] awful situation" (Ether 8: 24-25).
