In the West we generally believe in the need for a pluralistic society in which each person has their own view of life, and in which tolerance of each other's views, rather than agreement on a common view, is regarded as the most desirable social goal. We tend to look down on societies that are governed by a single worldview, religious or secular. That foundation is 'freedom'.
Anytime societies are governed by a 'single worldview', individual freedom is suppressed.
All of our basic 'laws' are set forth and agreed upon under the guise of our foundational freedom, which I believe is some idea many Americans have of a 'past' where individual freedom was suppressed, vast amounts of individuals were murdered, the World War era's and the notion that our present 'reality' allows us more freedoms than our 'past' remembrance of 'reality', referred to as 'History'. If History is then to teach us anything, be it that no nation has remained a nation for over 200 years without a revolution, or that wherever force is used, freedom is suppressed, the main lesson we remain to learn, could be that our personal 'reality' is not 'reality'. Our personal ideas of freedoms are not 'freedom'. This is to say our 'tolerance' will be directed by those who we tolerate to use force. Tolerance is not freedom.
