In the words of the late Blessed John Paul II, Freedom itself must be set free. We struggle under a counterfeit notion of freedom as a perceived right to do whatever one pleases. That is not freedom, it is license and it does not lead to happiness and human flourishing but to tyranny and various forms of injustice. True freedom brings with it an obligation to choose what is right and what is true. Only in choosing the good will men or women - or the societies which they form - ever flourish.This Christian vision concerning the nature of freedom threatens both the libertine hedonism and secularist materialism gaining traction in the West.
