To be free, one must be allowed to think about anything he/she wishes to think about. Freedom of thought is freedom to think without restrictions imposed by third party regulators, religion etc.
Wicked in thought are those who act wickedly. It is. not what we think, but the manner in which we respond to thought.
Society condemns non-traditional outsiders from the fold due to fear of the unknown and loss of stability.
In early witch trials, men tortured and condemned women to death for thinking freely.
Early Christians were likewise condemned to death for thinking differently. Ethnic racial groups are not easily accepted into a different society due to lack of understanding, fear and rejection.
Eastern and Western society reject one another due to social difference, culture, and value of thinking differently.
Imagine the ability to think freely, without individual restraint or restriction? Is it wrong to think about death? Thinking freely gives us the ability to question and converse with God freely. God knows what we think anyway, so why not put your thoughts into words?
What if our verbal filter were removed, what would say?
Chaos and violence occurs when thoughts are suppressed and not dealt with.
Freedom to think allows all thoughts to enter our mind; conscious awareness channels response.
Even now as write this I am cautious not to say anything that may offend God. I am not a free thinker because if I were a free thinker I would exactly what is on mind without regard to God or anyone else.
