I think he’s right.  He got it from an early saint like Augustine or Aquinas, anyway, he was a Franciscan Saint from the Thirteenth Century.

He said freedom is not anarchy, but a freedom to achieve one’s calling.  Like the journeyman that becomes the master builder deserves his drink after the toil of a “career”.

When the tests are over, one becomes a practicing lawyer (if the fees are paid, you don’t really need a client to practice, a practicing lawyer studies after all, even marketing).

When the practicing is over, one has the freedom to live freely in that zone, after all, it’s where the practicing lawyer or master builder live now.  Women are building with the saints too, did I mention Magdalene? “A kinder gentler nation.” George H.W. Bush.

How can we as an American nation founded upon war between men, do that without women?
