Union. Mercy. Consensus. Freedom.
Those words have multiple meanings, and sometimes those connotations conflict. Take care when reading and listening; the person expressing those terms might be confusing things, intentionally or unintentionally.
Also, one correction from the show (that I noticed after it was finished; doh!). I said “freedom from capitulation” when I should’ve said “freedom from compunction” while quoting from Christopher Cook’s article during the Salad Bar.
