A Quote by Shiva Ayyadurai
As a kid, I learned from my parents, teachers, coaches, and friends that what mattered most was Truth - to uncover it, share it and fight for it. That core value is the foundation of the American Dream. And my life has been about fighting for Truth, at every step.

But it is not the truth. There have been many books written about the things contained in the Bible. I have written some myself. They can be quite wonderful to read.

Let us instill into the hearts of our children the love of freedom. Teach them that to be free is as precious as life itself. Fight every influence - Socialist, communist, whatever it may be - that would deprive an American citizen of the liberty vouchsafed by the Constitution. Liberty is truth. In truth we find liberty. You teachers, feel it in your hearts; instill it into the hearts of these precious children. May the Church of Jesus Christ ever stand true to the ideals of freedom.
Every step in human progress, from the first feeble stirrings in the abyss of time, has been opposed by the great majority of men.

They have fought every new truth ever heard of, and they have killed every truth-seeker who got into their hands.
