Thanks for your reply.
Cost? I think that is the wrong word. It implies a party paying some price, in money or something of value, to another to have freedom. Best to call a spade a spade and call them problems. There are people who are seriously harmed by a country choosing to have freedom. I think they would find it offensive to know they are part of the "cost".
Although not a Christian myself, I wish more people took the morals of Christianity of one of the other Abrahamic religions to heart. I think these 3 religions all espouse something good, such as be nice. It is a great shame that these religions, and these days Islam in particular are suffering from "negative advertizing" thse days.
