A reply to GB Shaw quote post

The post:

Revolutions have never lightened the burden of tyranny:
they have only shifted it to another shoulder
~ George Bernard Shaw

My comment:

GBS speaks from the perspective of the human and in that context speaks more truly than is understood during the time of revolution. However, when governed by God, man needs no other government. Man (mankind, male and female) is free to obey the 2 great commandments. He will naturally and rightly love his neighbor as himself as he loves himself, not as self-made but as God's image and likeness.
