Freedom of Thought vs. Freedom of Spirit
4 by ZoharAtkins | 1 comments on Hacker News.
What do you make of the fact that the modern liberal value of "Freedom of thought" emerged from a theological and metaphysical view that idealized "Freedom of spirit"? Does the former require the latter to be justified? What happens to the value of freedom of thought when freedom of spirit is no longer a rallying cry?
