God the Master, people the slaves;
the church the Master, people the slaves;
the state the Master, people the slaves;
society the Master, people the slaves;
the family the Master, people the slaves;
nature the Master, people the slaves.

"It is slavery in everything; in the acquisition of knowledge, in morals, in religion, in art, in political & social life."
Nicolas Berdyaev, "Master, Slave and Free Man."


Who has found, in religion, in nationalism, in family, in intimate relations, an authentic liberation?
