I think people have misinterpreted what it means to be free, these days. Along with freedom comes responsibility, the responsibility to be considerate of the people around you, to be respectful of their sensibilities, their values, and to live a life in the service and glory of God. You are not free to take other lives, trample on them, abuse them, or abuse and damage your own life. Jesus really never really talked about freedom. Instead he talked about being the servant of others, and of God. 'The one who is greatest in heaven is the one who is the servant of all,' he said. Freedom therefore isn't so much an end of itself but rather only a possibility in which we leave our mark, for good or ill. We've lost our way, I think, in this long journey of freedom. estory
