Creed of the Order of Freedom

We believe that:

There are souls who feel an inner calling to express and champion one or more of the divine virtues, such as Truth, Justice, Love or Mercy. The members of this order feel a calling to honour and defend the Eternal Principles of Freedom. Individually and collectively, we recognize within ourselves a sense of obligation to:

1. Love the free country we live in, and ask that it be blessed.
2. Stand honourably in defence of Freedom, and be grateful to those who have done so in the past.
3. Affirm all past victories and declarations of Freedom, as when Thomas Jefferson penned, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”
4. Honour Freedom as a divine virtue that exists at a higher level than human opinion.
5. Respect free will as a divine gift to the soul, with self-determination and the opportunity to learn from one's mistakes as vital to the soul's evolution.
6. Respect the body as a divine gift and everyone's right to keep their organs free of impurities that may cause harm or impair their spiritual connection.
7. Resist the temptation to acquire power over others.
8. Promote Freedom as a ward against manipulation by those who seek to control and exploit.
9. Offer solutions that uphold freedom when governments would solve problems through the erosion or expropriation of freedoms.
10. Refuse to surrender our freedoms out of fear, as fear is not a divine virtue.
11. Insist that those who have acted improperly to violate the freedoms of others be held accountable.
12. Shun fanaticism, which is itself a form of bondage, is not a divine virtue, and is not part of our creed.

On Vaccination Policies

Despite any past precedents, the vaccine mandates, passports and proof of status policies being presented as a response to COVID-19 are not compatible with those who hold our beliefs.

Because of our respect for free will, it would be unconscionable for our members to coerce anyone to submit to a medical treatment that was not accepted independently by informed consent. Because of our commitment to Freedom, the members of our order would not willingly participate in this overreach of government that requires vaccination and the sharing of private medical information.

Our responsibility to the divine precepts we hold is to challenge these impositions, which we consider immoral and, in certain cases illegal. To this end:

• We affirm our constitutional freedom from vaccine mandates.
• We affirm the right to informed consent.
• We affirm the right to keep medical records private.
• We affirm freedom from discrimination based on creed.
• We affirm freedom from genetic testing and discrimination based on genetic characteristics.
• We do not agree that this is the only or best way to cope with this pandemic.
• We do not consent to human rights violations even where exemptions are provided for.

How you can help

There are many healthy people who will lose their jobs to vaccine policies unless they can claim an exemption based on creed. The beliefs that we already share, as lovers of freedom, don't become a creed until they are "Associated to an organization or community that shares the belief system". That is the purpose of this order.

Everyone, who sincerely feels the calling of freedom and joins, will add their weight to the organization and the creed. Those who need the legitimacy of our united belief will have it to secure their freedoms. Your membership will make a difference even if you choose to keep your membership private.
