Freedom
What is freedom? We are born to become ? be free. Freedom is (according to the oxford dictionary):
- The state of being or at rather than in confinement or under physical restraint
- Exemption from external , interference, regulation, etc.
- The power to determine action without restraint.
- Political or national independence.
How can we live freely? I think we can live freely by respecting other’s rights to live freely too. We cannot ignore the rights of people with whom we live in DELETE THE society. We cannot simply do what we want and ignore others. We must take other people rights into consideration. With pure freedom comes anarchy, VERY GOOD POINTfor example the freedom of speech conflicts with the freedom that ‘Everyone is equal despite differences in skin colour sex, religion, language for example.’ If someone believes that dark skinned people are inferior to white skinned then they have the freedom of speech to say that but it is taking away the right of the dark skinned people to be treated equally. IS IT? SAYING IT DOESN’T NECESSARILY TAKE AWAY THAT RIGHT – BUT THE BEHAVIOUR OF PEOPLE WHO SAY IT MAY DO SO Taking this into account it shows just how much our community needs rules whether we know it or not. Without rules no one and everyone would be free, so overall there would be no such thing as freedom. Everyone would be born free but then not everyone would get the freedom to equality or other things that rules dictate we, as a society must have.
