Freedom is a power to say or act whatever you like but when it comes to crucial matters and senstive issues words can change histories whenther to be better or worst. I think he would better (the Pope) lessen the tension that is already growing in the world... such words are no more than stabbing to any trial of peace re-birth... people need trust and real emotional understanding of the cultures, traditions, customs and habits of one another.
It does not matter that I do have to accept what you say or do as long as you are not harming me or acting as an obligitory obstacle hindering my way... the world already had enough mis-fortunes, pain and tourturing memories...don't we have enough love and understanding to spread?

Well, let's see if I can define something that I embrace, yet I take for granted; that I know is a physical reality although the boundaries that encapsulate this sometimes elusive state have definite cerebral beginings;
I think not!
I'd
rather
go......
speak my mind in forums public and private,
walk my dog.
buy the ingredients and cook my favorite meal,
meditate,
purchase any book that I deem worthy to read, or any number of things.
I CAN DO THESE THINGS BECAUSE I'M FREE!!!!!!

What does Freedom mean to you? What does Freedom mean to your life?
freedom?
does anyone need it really?
the comfort.
that's what everyone needs.
that's why the state and the freedom are incompatible notions.
