This past week I have been laying out both the ethical and practical arguments against voting. In a political system dominated by State power and control voting to use violence in order to force others to live how you think they should is evil and those in power are going to justify doing whatever they want whether the people support it or not so voting is meaningless. Here though I dig into the deeper, theological reasons against voting in a statist political system. The scriptures teach us that the power of the governments of the world come from Satan, not God. Likewise, the State sets itself into opposition to God by teaching men and women under its influence to defy and break the commandments of God in order to serve and follow it. Giving such a perverse and corrupt system even the appearance of your consent to it through voting, thereby legitimizing it in all its violence, oppression, and theft, should be something all people of all persuasions would avoid to do, especially the Saints of God who have consecrated themselves and all they have to God alone. The State is infernalistic and idolatrous and we should have no part in empowering it or promoting it.

Voting is Ineffective, Meaningless, And A Waste Of Time
It really doesn’t matter who you voted for, why you voted, or how you voted. Liberty is about much more than the number of autocrats on the ballots or what empty promises they make. Voting doesn’t work. It doesn’t just fail to protect your freedom; it actively creates the system by which the people are convinced to surrender their liberty. As a means to actually accomplish anything it is utterly meaningless and a total waste of time – at best. At worst it is an unethical exercise in appointing an autocrat who will use the violent powers of the law to try of force his or her Utopian vision of society upon all the people, if not the world (see the way the War on Terrorism promised to “”spread democracy” around the world and ask those being sold into slavery on Libyan beaches how that worked out for them.) Voting is completely ineffective and perfectly meaningless as anything other than a tool of control and a servile ritual that convinces the masses to love and protect the chains on their wrists and the boots on their necks.
The Ethical Argument Against Voting
If voting is a right then there are some very good reasons for why you should exercise your right to vote by refusing to support any of the people vying for power in the statist (“state-ist”) system. Over the next week, here at The Latter-day Liberator we plan to try and expose you to some salient arguments for exactly why you should refuse to take part in the system, for why you should refuse to vote and thereby refuse to give the appearance of your submission and consent to a system which is founded on violence and theft and ran by thugs and criminals. Today’s article is about laying a basic foundation for the argument against voting by introducing the morals, principles, and intellectual reasons against participating in the system itself in an easy to read and understand manner.
Abortion: Science, Ethics, and Religion
The arguments that go to defending this wicked practice of abortion can be largely classified into three categories – arguments based on science, arguments based on ethics, and arguments based in religion. I address all three of these categories and demonstrate how the science, ethics, and religion all demolish pro-abortionist arguments and support those who want to preserve the human rights of children in the womb to their right to Life. In the section on science I draw upon a milestone study carried out by Dr. Steven Jacobs where he spoke to around 5,500 biologists from every religious and political perspective, those who call themselves pro-choice as well as pro-life, and asked them about what the scientific evidence says about when human life begins. The results of his study will shock some of you, especially those who have long been fed the lie that this is a question that scientific study is somehow incapable of solving. In the ethics section, I address a multitude of ethical and ideological argument used to justify abortion, including concepts of bodily autonomy, feminism, personhood, rape, incest, and medical necessity. In the religion section I draw upon the teachings of the modern Prophets and Apostles about what they have to say about the topic of abortion and the Church’s stance on not only those who get abortions, but even those who simply aid or encourage people to get abortions. Finally, I address the inherently racist and eugenic nature of abortion and political consideration about how to foster a Culture of Life.
