    Freedom Report

    Freedom is more than just the right to do whatever one wants. True freedom is the power to act or not act, grounded in reason and will, to perform liberating actions that serve what is good, just and true. It requires limitations and accountability so that one's actions do not infringe on the freedom of others. While outward circumstances may limit opportunities, true freedom comes from within and is dependent on conscience, not physical conditions. Freedom must be used responsibly and for the welfare of others.
