"Our country has accepted obligations that are difficult to fulfill, and would be dishonorable to abandon. Yet because we have acted in the great liberating tradition of this nation, tens of millions have achieved their freedom. And as hope kindles hope, millions more will find it. By our efforts, we have lit a fire as well – a fire in the minds of men. It warms those who feel its power, it burns those who fight its progress, and one day this untamed fire of freedom will reach the darkest corners of our world." ~ George W. Bush, Inaugural address, 2005
In James Billington's book, Fire in the Minds of Men, he focuses on the imagery of fire, an image that began before the French Revolution and extended to Lenin's newspaper, Iskra, "spark." Billington writes:

"The heart of revolutionary faith, like any faith, is fire: ordinary material transformed into extraordinary faith, quantities of warmth suddenly changing the quality of substance. If we do not know what fire is, we know what it does. It burns. It destroys life; but it also supports it as a source of heat, light, and – above all – fascination."
Billington argues that the myth of Prometheus was central to the mythology of the revolutionary movement.

"A recurrent mythic model for revolutionaries – early romantics, the young Marx, the Russians of Lenin's time – was Prometheus, who stole fire from the gods for the use of mankind. The Promethean faith of revolutionaries resembled in many respects the general modern belief that science would lead men out of darkness into light. But there was also the more pointed, millennial assumption that, on the new day that was dawning, the sun would never set." [1]Another author hits it spot-on.
The “revolutionary faith” is motivated by a deep-set desire for “freedom,” which specifically meant freedom from the authority of monarchy, tradition, and church. Though there was indeed plenty of corruption in monarchy, tradition and church, the revolutionary sought not to correct it, but used it as a pretext for his cause of “liberation” from all authority. This revolutionary spirit originated in a secular rebellion against the social and political order engendered by the Reformation. If the Enlightenment pretended to set men free scientifically from Christian dogma concerning the origin and nature of man, revolutionary ideology pretended to free men socially and politically from Christian dogma concerning authority and duty.The revolutionary ideology of the Masonic Founding Fathers is being duplicated today. The Elites desire to take their freedom to the next level - and completely silence Christianity. They have a willing participant in the Roman Catholic Church and its daughter - the Evangelical Church. They have acted as harlot's to assist Elite Satanists in the rise and power of their Creature to the seat of world dictatorship. That new day is set to rise soon.
