A Picnic in True Freedom: Good Societies

Do good societies seek critical, compassionate and creative ideas - simultaneously?

Welcome

You appear to be the sort of person who is interested in philosophical questions, so I hope you will find something here worth tasting.

I especially invite you to express your own ideas as you savour your thoughts. Any relevant and reasonably brief comments are welcome contributions to this gentle, moderated Picnic in True Freedom, even if anonymous.

All messages indicating respect for the diversity of valid points of view will be published, and I look forward to enjoying your insights.
