A two part question, what is and how can we have true freedom?

You can only have true freedom, when you give it to others as well.A two part question, what is and how can we have true freedom?
I don't think true freedom exists. Therefore we can't have true freedom.





Babies and little children are socialized. Babies instinctively bite people when they are very angry, for example. We socialize and educate out kids. Part of that is 'brainwashing' and I think it's unavoidable.





I stopped believing in the gods when I was around 22 years old. My Dad stopped believing in gods when I was 13, which obviously got me thinking about things.





I started calling myself Atheist and Humanist around age 47.





A year or two ago, I heard about this thing called polyamory. Presumably people get together in groups of three or more in any gender combination for sex. Good for them but I don't want to know about it. I think if you are not introduced to certain ideas by a certain age, you may never be able to embrace those ideas.





APEKOOL, EDIT, it's DIDEROT

about a quarter of the way down.A two part question, what is and how can we have true freedom?
Freedom is having the possibility to try out alternatives to a given paradigm.





Only when the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest will man be truly free.
True freedom to me is trusting in Jesus as my personal Savior. He came and died for me. And when He did, He took upon Himself all of my sins and the sins of the world. Now He lives and takes care of me as His child. So true freedom is knowing that my burden is gone and I don't have a load to carry but rather I have Jesus to carry it for me. One can have this true freedom by putting his complete trust in Christ and asking Him to be his personal savior
You can only have freedom if you give up condemnation and judgment, and beleive in the only one who can give you life: Jesus Christ.
Living without superstition is freedom. (Of course other things contribute as well.)
