To Amber:
One question that i really liked was "Why does freedom seem to make the human race happy?" i guess people nowadays just want to do whatever they please. However, if you think about what would really happen if everyone had the freedom to do whatever they please will it benefit people? All i can imagine if that the world would be in chao and it will be like the Survival of the fittest.

Is everyone's idea of freedom the same? i mean if you randomly ask people what is freedom will they all agree on one thing? what if someone said if drugs were legal it would give them freedom are we suppose to change that law just to make someone happy? How do we know what is "good freedom"and what is "bad freedom"?

Can we really make everyone happy?

To Corey:
agree with many things that you are say and i really like your question: "Can you not have choice but still be free?" However in my opinion there are difinely ways to explain both how essence precedes existence and existence precedes essence.

An example of how essence precedes existence is before a chair is made someone has already has a propose for the piece of wood the will make the chair.

An example of how existence precedes essence is how when a we are born we don't really know who we are until we are faced with many challenges and the influenced from the people around us.

i guess it can be seen in both ways but if you ask me i agree with you and think that I am the one who controls my life and the direction it goes.
