You have it backwards. Liberty is NOT a product of order. Instead, liberty is a God-given right to humanity. Law and order was created to secure said liberty.

That quote from Will Durant was taken out of context.>>

That is a direct quote. It was not taken out of context.

Durant who wrote the History of civilization is saying without order you can have no liberty or freedom.

And if you have liberty and freedom without order it will devolve into anarchy.

Look at all the history before the humans started organizing into Republics. There was no freedom or liberty!!!

If we get rid of democracy, law and order, we will go back to being animals killing each other.

Barbarians.
