redfish. You said....." I don't think freedom is a "way of life," I would call it more a "state of being."..... I have always thought-felt that " freedom was the backbone of America. You said....." I think the term "way of life" refers more to things like, for example, a rural way of life as opposed to an urban way of life. Another example would be a mormon way of life as compared to a secular way of life.".... Yes agreed, but those people you mention are able to practice their way of life because of the freedom that exists in America and other free nations. As an example -- in America you are free to practice whatever religion you wish in most islam controlled countries you are not free to practice whatever religion you wish. In America you are free to speak your mind..There are countries in the world where this freedom does not exist. In a muslim controlled country for example your way of life is determined for you. So I believe that " Freedom " is a way of life in America IMO it is the reason why so many life styles exist in America and other free world countries.
