Genesis 11:8-9
8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from there over the face of the whole earth; and they stopped building the city.
9 Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of the whole earth; and from there the LORD scattered them abroad over the face of the whole earth.
When you break the big laws, you do not get freedom; you do not even get anarchy. You get the small laws.
