Interesting post on this forum, given how much the two freedoms “from” (never listed as protected rights) have been used as justification to curtail the two freedoms “to” (which are clearly protected rights) he listed...

Freedom from want/fear.

Is not real freedom, it is only derived from the other two.

Two are true God-given freedoms, two are phony freedoms.

Freedom is absence of government interference and coercion.

Individuals have the God-given right to be free to speak and worship without government interference and coercion.

So-called “freedom from want and fear” (FDR’s favorites) invite government interference and coercion into one’s life. There is no God-given freedom from want and fear, but trusting God gives and individual victory over and and fear.

No freedom from want?

Have you noticed the food banks with 4 hour waiting lines?

No Freedom to Defend One’s Self?

"Freedom from Fear" and "Freedom from Want" are antithetical to the principles on which this nation was founded.

These two are blatant contradictions of the human condition and the fallen nature of the human race. We have to work to eliminate fear and want.

The other two are God-given rights that exist even in times of dire poverty, need and strife.

At least we still have Freedom from Want -- for now. I wonder when that one will be on the chopping block along with the other three.

Couple months, tops.

The elections are coming up and I can see this country going into lockdown again.

I am getting ready for it because it won't go to waste if nothing happens (which I highly doubt) and winter is coming anyways, and I ALWAYS prep for winter.

Speech and Worship are freedoms. Want and Fear are not.
