Question: Philosophically, what is more important to you, security or freedom!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Definitely Freedom!. If you are free you can make your own security!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Freedom - Its interesting to lose everything or feel that everything is lost and have to "stoop and build it up with well worn tools" (kipling)!. I have led an interesting life and it was worth it to me - I learned a lot loved a lot and healed a lot!. Now I am older my priorities have slightly changed but I still cherish freedom especially of the psyche and speech!.I think its the only thing worth fighting for!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Freedom!. When someone feels free, they already have a sense of security!. After all, "freedoms just another word for nothing left to lose"!.
I'd rather take some risks, and do what makes me happy than lead a dull, "secure" life!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

For me it is more important to have security then to have freedom because without security your freedom has no value!. If there is no security your freedom could be at stake!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

If I am free from a roof over my head, my choices are precluded!. Security MEANS freedom!. Contingency (my having more on my plate to deal with) limits freedom!. So security = freedom!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Security!. Freedom is a bad thing!. It's this cherished "freedom" that causes murder, war, stagnation, etc!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
