I would also appreciate anyone's reaction to my essay at (http://www.dailypaul.com/comment/2654207) called Who Loves God more...

Within my essay, I Trust You, there are several metaphysical points that cause good people great trouble.

1) So long as people have free will, there will always be evil. I am always amazed at the number of people you see this as pessimistic, where I see it as simply true. And from this follows...

2) Is it not probable that the maximum expression of good must always become evil, and that the minimum expression of evil is our best attainable good?

When one sees other people as something to fix, then one no longer sees them as moral ends in and of themselves. Start with fixing oneself rather than with fixing others. For more on this, and one of the best resources for introducing progressives/leftists to Libertarianism, see Healing Our World: The Other Piece of the Puzzle by Dr. Mary J. Ruwart at (http://www.ruwart.com/healing/)
