I am an atheist, and if an atheist and a pope think the same things, there must be something true. There must be some human truth that is beyond religion. – Oriana Fallaci October 6th, 2006 | 6 comments - (Comments are closed)
 Life, faculties, production – in other words, individuality, liberty, property – this is man. And in spite of the cunning of artful political leaders, these three gifts from God precede all human legislation, and are superior to it. Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place. – Frédéric Bastiat October 3rd, 2006 | 7 comments - (Comments are closed)
The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. – Jeff Cooper (10 May 1920 – 25 September 2006) September 28th, 2006 | 38 comments - (Comments are closed)
The Samizdata.net server was a bit grumpy earlier today but the good folks at Hosting Matters have opened it up, removed some dead mice from the treadmill, replaced them with new fresh ones and all is now well again. September 28th, 2006 | 9 comments - (Comments are closed)
He said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one”. – Jesus Christ, according to Luke 22:36 (New International Version) September 21st, 2006 | 29 comments - (Comments are closed)
Freedom, secularism, and rationality are not only Western values. Much of East Asia, eastern Europe, and Latin America are at various stages of embracing them. An alliance against jihadism could be very broad indeed. The Islamists themselves say that “all unbelievers are one people”. Might as well take them up on it. – ‘Infidel’ commenting on Classical Values September 18th, 2006 | 7 comments - (Comments are closed)
Isn’t it hilarious? Muslims are outraged that the Pope would link Islam with violence and react – with violence. Magnificent. – James Waterton September 16th, 2006 | 19 comments - (Comments are closed)

“I do worry that spokespeople for the Fairtrade movement suffer from a myopic romantic vision of the coffee farmer in a co-operative, whereas in truth such an existence is backbreaking and mired in exploitation.” – Alex Singleton (via Owen Barder) September 14th, 2006 | Comments are closed
I don’t find taking my clothes off difficult, it’s the acting that’s really hard! September 3rd, 2006 | 17 comments - (Comments are closed)
Libertarians should not be denying scientific fact. We should instead spend our time combatting the religious impulse of people to think the modern world is evil and that we must repent for our sins by living cruddy lives and waiting for (in their minds) our inevitable and justified doom at the hands of a wronged Gaia.
