Day 31 - Listen Closely

I'm excited to report that the message of warisimmoral.com is continuing to spread in new ways, most recently via the audible medium of the Complete Liberty Podcast.

Wes Bertrand, the author of the books Complete Liberty and the Psychology of Liberty, is the host and describes the podcast as a "show that promotes total respect for self-ownership, property rights, and personal choice--amidst the authoritarian/obedience-oriented political and psychological memes in American culture (and elsewhere)."

In this week's episode, linked below, Wes spends the majority of the show sharing excerpts from my application. If you've been too busy to read my admittedly lengthy discourse on why I believe that war is immoral and how I came to hold this belief, you can now gain this understanding on-the-go by listening to the episode.

To be upfront, Wes doesn't begin talking about Guantanamo Bay until about 6 minutes into the show, and then after another 3 minutes or so he introduces my conscientious objection and continues on this topic for another 25 minutes. Overall, I highly recommend the entirety of the show as both insightful and entertaining, so please understand that I offer these time-specific designations merely as a convenience for those intending only to listen and catch-up on that which they haven't had the time to read.

Many thanks to Wes for his high quality and accurate presentation of my beliefs, and as always, please let me know any thoughts or ideas that you have in response to anything I've presented or referenced. I realize I still have some issues outstanding that I said I would address, but after yesterday's post, I need to take a break from more rigorous writing.
