Document Summary

Freedom is the individual willful deliberation, thinking and acting according to will. Freedom is a scene, not something you have or don"t. Freedom is something most of us do not want, prefer happiness, directive, bread, authority, miracles. Freedom is accepted and handled by the elites who can carry the burden of freedom, freedom requires human passion and strength to endure sufferings that come with it. Freedom is the renunciation of desires, urges and needs; we are driven by them while enslaved > thus freedom is complex and burdensome. Important to note that freedom comes from passion; distinction between ordinary need that enslaves us and life giving desires that craft life. People await arrival of christ but his coming brings suffering. Without god, people are motivated to use agency, make decisions; when the christ came, they are content with following his directive. People assist gi with arrest and would heap up the embers after the burning.
