No one wants to be caught, even in his thinking. Rather, we want freedom for our thinking, beliefs and speeches. As a Christian I believe that God always gives this freedom to all people. And Although so extensive that a man can make even the existence of God in question. So that the freedom granted by God is virtually absolute: The thoughts are free. That does not mean that God our thoughts are not assessed and evaluated. On the contrary, Jesus says in the Sermon on the Mount, that thought exactly the same as acts of God may be objectionable.
As a society we have an interest to limit human freedom. Namely where it harms the common good and social harmony. We can not ban ideas, but we can limit the freedom of speech and freedom of expression. So racist, hateful or defamatory comments are not allowed. In very hot lately discussion on free thinkers, minarets and poster advertising. The question is: What hurts the public interest, promotes what it?
God Himself has given us the opportunity to put its existence into question. Therefore the question must also have public space. At the same time the public but also clear religious faiths have their place. Just the possibility of public discussion - the competition of values - ultimately promotes the common good, if not manipulated. Christians are therefore the better free-thinker? It should be, as their Holy Scripture says: «Where the Spirit of the Lord, because freedom is" freedom from fear, freedom from manipulation, freedom from legalism Freedom from condemnation. Who understands freedom as is a true free-thinkers by God.
