@questionWeaver on what do you base that statement
@Longleggedlady The United States is the ONLY country in the world that recognizes freedom is granted via a creator and not via the legislative process.

@questionWeaver but do you really truly have free will it is different from freedom. What I am asking is your mind free or is it controlled by others that want you to react or do things in a certain way and you believe that you actually made the choice.
@Longleggedlady you can not truly have a free mind or free will, when you are subjected to the legislative removal of those freedoms based on narrow political deal making.

It is only an illusion that one is free at all.

See Thomas Paine, Rights of Man - 1776 ... his argument was so good, that his 26 pages inspired a revolution that actually returned free will to people.
