Freedom is our most cherished gift. We are designed to exercise choice and those who rob us of this are therefore inhuman and unGodly.

In the dark ages unChristian power monsters took over the church and staged inquisitions or waged crusades forcing all to follow their unbiblical ways.

Real Christianity had to shelter in monasteries, convents and individual hearts awaiting a reaffirmation and rescue.

Today, Malaya and others endure dark times. Malaya automatically deems all born into Muslim families as Muslims for life, and last week Sharia Law jailed one woman a second time for opting out of Islam.

What about Russia and the overwhelming vote for the new leadership this month? Did the electorate really have much choice?

And what about another nation, where 90 per cent demand a referendum on Europe and the Government reneges on its promise?

Should the electorate not feel robbed of choice?

When the same government wants to kill unborn babies to harvest their cells so sick adults might live a bit longer or create hybrid human/animal chimeras, is it not reasonable to give MPs of their party a free vote rather than be whipped into Stalin-like party lines?

The most grotesque abuse of freedom comes from Jersey where perhaps hundreds of children had no choice but to please paedophile bullies or die.

Jesus came to give us truth which would "set us free".

God help politicians, priests or paedophiles, who remove it without just cause.
