Freedom

[GummyBearz]

We must be free not because we claim freedom, but because we practice it. - W. Faulkner

1. How does a person practice freedom?

A philosophical question for a philosophical quote.

2. Tough to define

But losley, I'd say by not oppressing people you disagree with, as long as they are not violating your rights. So, allow free elections, allow freedom to consensual marriage, even allow freedom to own a gun within the laws of the land. Dont oppress people with different skin color or religion, etc.. The list is too long to type out but I think anyone decent person should be able to put the missing pieces together

3. Freedom is personal.

It's very difficult to define that word where it means the same thing to every human being.

The closest I can get is that every human is able to live without worrying about basic survival, so they can use their brains for what they decide makes them happy and make the most of being alive. If that were to happen, people would stop hurting and killing each other over a feeling of lack and scarcity.
