What is Freedom?
Recently, I had the opportunity to enter into a discussion
about the subject of freedom. After hearing
what Norom (the person that I was speaking with), had to say about the
condition that is known as being free, I quickly realized, that, this American,
does not have a clue as to what freedom might possibly be. While thinking about what Norom, was saying,
it dawned on me that this may be a subject that needs investigating.
For most of my life, I have heard people say
things like: "I live in a free country" or, "this,
(America) is a free country", on
and on. I am thinking that maybe an
interactive dialog about what some of us think freedom actually is, could be
quite interesting. In other words,
questions like: where did we acquire our ideas about freedom . Is the data that we have, true or false, is
it (the data), based on belief or knowledge?
If you are interested in this discussion please leave a comment.
