Would that are modern politicians were like Gideon and not sickened by centralizing power lust.
Gideon vanquished the enemies of Israel, and the people beseeched him to become their king, and rule over them.
Gideon declined this sorely tempting offer: "I will not rule over you, nor shall my son rule over you. The Lord must rule over you." Judges, 8, 23.
As individuating anarchist, only God and the Good Spirits will rule over you, because that is the definition of liberty: one rules over oneself in line with obeying and living in accordance with God's natural law.
