"you have accused me of wanting to every kind of heinous act from sexually abusing others to violating the civil liberties of others and now to rule the world."

Making false statements does nothing for your case.

I see, as well, that you are on another tangent and ENTIRELY missing the point. Natural rights are limited, but they DO NOT trump one another. However, ACTING on your conscience is NOT a natural right. Therefore ALL your actions fall under the authority of the Government, and they may be restricted or directed by the POWER of the Government.

Now if all you wish to claim is that no Government has the authority or the power to make you BELIEVE other than what you believe, then I grant you the obvious. But you have no right to act in accordance with your beliefs. You may act in accordance with your beliefs only when those beliefs may be found tolerable to those empowered to enact and enforce law and order.

In other words: NO ACTIONS CONSEQUENTIAL TO YOUR BELIEFS HAVE ANY SPECIAL RIGHT OR PRIVILEGE BEYOND THEIR PERMISSSIBILITY TO THE SOCIETY IN WHICH YOU LIVE. YOU MAY BELIEVE ANYTHING YOU WANT AND AS CONSCIENTIOUSLY AS YOU WANT--BUT YOUR ACTIONS WILL ALL BE ASSESSED, EVALUATED, AND IF NECESSARY PUNISHED BY THE SOCIETY IN WHICH YOU LIVE.

As to the rest of your paper, I am sorry I cannot be other than directly honest: GIBBERISH.
