If you could choose what freedom means to you, would you take action to make sure you get it?
Well, as you know, the SAFF has been fighting for decades to ensure that people holding minority religious
views get the same sort of protection and rights as everyone else. Now the Government is consulting
publicly, through the internet, to find out what sort of freedoms the population wants.
You can be sure that all sorts of religious organisations will be taking part, especially the
monotheistic faiths which want everyone else to join them. Will they be protecting your rights or
theirs?
The thing is, unless we get the views of Pagans, Occultists, and free thinkers taken into consideration,
can you imagine what the next raft of legislation affecting YOUR rights will look like? And what may
happen as a result?

and have your say.
For all the positive platitudes about Democracy in the media the system tends towards being
intrinsically unfair to all minorities by its very structure (because it reflects the will of the
majority) so simply voting for or against is not enough - we need to use our empowered minds and
esoteric perspectives to think up more appropriate solutions and ideas for government which they
might adopt or which might set them on new lateral thought processes and break the old political thinking.
In short, propose in order to oppose.
If we take this initiative at face value and it is not simply a trawling operation by
the coalition government to drum up justification for already decided action then it us up to us and
people like us to make it work; because it can be seen as a quite revolutionary attempt at
microproportional representation and the first-step towards an Internet Parliament of the People.
It sidesteps the biased political lobbyists, charity scaremongers and unrepresentative focus groups
which have set the political agenda for the past two decades, often against the best interests of us all.
So, go to http://yourfreedom.hmg.gov.uk/
and have your say.
Alert your friends and contacts urging them to participate.
Nick Clegg (who is fronting this initiative) must be aware that it might be hi-jacked by political and
fundamentalist agitators. The fundies already have letter-writing, email-writing and telephone 'chains'
set up so that they can call upon hundreds of thousands of supporters to distort voting to suit their own
purposes. They can do this virtually overnight. To counter this you could help by posting this article
on all esoterically related forums and request support from forum readers. If everyone of you posted this
article to just one forum on the net it would bring back the level playing field necessary for this
initiative to really work.
So, go to http://yourfreedom.hmg.gov.uk/
and have your say.
