Human Freedom
#20
RE: Human Freedom
How freedom is relative.  I think it's relative because a slave can attain that would be known as freedom, to no longer have a master.  He's free in relation to his previous situation of being a slave.

But in relation to being constrained by physical reality he still has every day limits.  He's isn't free to fly to the moon because gravity holds him in place and his fragile human body wouldn't withstand the outside atmosphere.

It's defined as the power to think or act as one wants or to not be imprisoned or enslaved.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
