It sounds to me like the author of that article is a control freak. He seems to believe that by defining each term to be a perversion of itself he can justify taking away freedom in the name of "liberty".

"You are your own worst enemy, and only by allowing someone else to define yourself can you truly become yourself."

No, thanks.

Perhaps the greatest evil is the inability to accept that what may be evil to one may not be evil to another?

But then, defining evil is difficult without involving examples.
