It al...This is one of your more interesting posts.<br /><br />It also makes sense.<br /><br />It would also be nice if you had some idea that life consisted of social roles. <br /><br />The entire concept of social roles was horrifying for me for a long time, but then I'm a horse of a different color, anyway.<br /><br />Actually, I'm what happens when you combine the philosophy that there should be absolute *social* freedom (meaning for a long time I wanted to dissolve all social roles - the elimination of any positive responsibilities of any social roles) with moral fundamentalism/absolutism (zero tolerance for any deviation from the moral order - no divorce, drugs, rock and roll, tattoos, swearing, lying, violence, war, etc. - the elimination of all "negative" freedoms).<br /><br />That would leave you with only "positive freedoms - the legal freedom only to engage in good moral actions" without the prisonhouse of social roles to restrict the individual.<br /><br />I don't know of anyone else but me who ever took that approach to life. Although I could have cribbed it from some Enlightenment philosopher somewhere.JPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11126071014909954387noreply@blogger.com
