Is this question really in English?
Man is apparently free to massacre the English language at least

Good question. Aside from the physical laws of nature, I thnk freedom is only limited by man's own shortcomings. Most of them are covered in the "seven deadly sins", the articulation of which, I think, emerged from the Dark Ages and are not ascribed to any particular religious doctrine, although they are addressed in many religions. There are very good discussions of the the seven deadly sins on the web that explain the nature of each "sin" (for example, gluttony is much more than just eating too much....sloth is as much an intellectual phenomena as physical, etc...)

U are correct! This world we live in comes with laws/rules and that not just made by man! For example, when it snows, U best find a cave! Even that aside, we must "Rule" ourselves, which Today is a very Rare thing to find in a person! Everyone wants to do as they please saying "Hey, it's my life dude!" which is NOT TRUE, because we ALL affect the people around us!!! John

If you think those who made the laws and rules had died years ago, then why do you think man is not free? If your ancestors are all deceased then you make your new and own law and be free. Thats how it works.

It is impossible for anyone anywhere to be completely free. Even animals live by rules. Anyone who is not ruled by God, is ruled by Satan - whether or not they choose to believe it.
The complete absence of rules is anarchy.
Would you want to live in a world where anyone was free to kill you at any given time for any reason at all? Would you want to drive down streets whereon there were no street signs, stop signs or road code? Laws exist to create order and to protect decent folks.
I am sure that if you think about it, that you'd be comforted by the existence of laws (i.e. the curbing of other people's freedoms).

We are only so free as we allow ourselves to be. The more religious, societal, etc. regulations we place upon ourselves, the less free we are. It is when we take charge of our lives, stand up on our own feet, recognize that we have the ability to determine our own reality that we truly recognize freedom. Even then, we are limited by perception. It is a growing process. Learning to accept oneself and live as you wish to live, accepting your reality is the first step to discovering true freedom.

All freedom is relative. Totally free of man's laws would still mean you are under physical laws. Or else you would fly off the planet and die in space. Remember gravity.

man is only as free as he allows himself to be .if humans decide to live through limited thought ideals then that is their existence and reality.but the choice to be sovereign is always there but the choice must be made consciously and a whole new realm of realities are available.if you choose not to believe or know something then you have chosen to live in a certain existence of ignorance

Freedom is a state of mind. Noone is "ruled" by administratives unless they choose to give the administratives the power to do so. Your life, your choice, etc.

Man is free when he completely and totally understands that he is a spirit having a physical experience in this life. Man believing that he is a physical being having a spiritual experience is trapped in his own prison of conjectures and failed attempts at redemption.

I think you need to work on your English grammar and syntax a little.
Cultural freedom is not without the restraints of the law and civil restraints.
True, we build new culture on the foundations left in bygone eras -- but freedom does not hinge on being above the laws of men and religion does not change 'one jot' of the law.
You are free, subject to the restraints of the law -- as we all are.
