God and Secular Government

Introducing scripture into any argument centered on using the coercive hand of secular government is dangerous. What is characterized as scripture is not the same for everyone in a multi-cultural society such as America. Whether or not what one set of scriptures says is okay for secular government to do ...

Self-Ownership and God

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.

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).
