You apparently don't support coercive religious authority or coercive political authority. However you have bowed, as demonstrated by your ever willing and continued efforts to bolster the corruption within the social authority. One does not rise above the other; in fact, one strives to be the other. It should be self evident to all of us that liberty is represented by the following statement: 'No person shall be required to violate an issue of personal conscience in the performance of public or private service to another.' Human power organizations are corrupt whether they are political authority, social authority, religious authority, or tyrannical in nature. It does little good to point the finger at one with the implication that an alternative is clean. So, it must be with great humility that anyone endorses a particular agenda, while knowing the nature of the forces one is dealing with. Attempting to corrupt the system is an endemic problem related to political agendas and the pundits who bolster them.” At the heart of this question we must look to the government to recognize and protect our freedom to conduct ourselves, at all times, in a conscionable manner. Anything else from the government, represents a coercive influence. Coercion in government is the antithesis of freedom. It should therefore be self evident to all of us that liberty is represented by the following statement: 'No person shall be required to violate an issue of personal conscience in the performance of public or private service to another.' If the government recognized this fundamental inalienable right of noble human beings, it would drastically alter the society in which we currently live.
