Skepticism, Non Belief or call it anything you want, this is the best form of living. When an individual is not mandated by what is written in a Book, or inscribed on some stone or an incantation each day- That soul lives a a freedom life. One thing of a certainty is, to be able not to make irrational judgement about any given circumstance; the individual must implement free thinking without attaching any sentiments to any particular scenario.

David Foster Wallace in his book ; Infinite Jest said and i quote:

What passes for hip cynical transcendence of sentiment is really some kind of fear of being really human, since to be really human [...] is probably to be unavoidably sentimental and naive and geo. prone and generally pathetic

Free thinkers usually have a clear perspective about life, it was a sad story of Mr.David Wallace who committed suicide back in 2008 after so many knowledge he had passed across to humanity, but that does not change the fact that living a free life free from all documented forms of morality brings happiness and is one of the best ways of living.

As a man, i like to base my ideologies not on religious doctrines but on independent grounds. By so doing, no one has to be morally tied to either doing good or bad, self realization and decision is the key.

Free thinkers are likened to independent thinkers, this group of people are commonly Computer specialists and scientists. Naturally they think abstractly which makes them perfect strategists and systematically logical.

It is unarguably safe to say that, when your thinking is free; you tend to have higher success rate in your careers and many other endeavors because that passion for purposefulness is always there.

Free thinking is a easy concept in theory but a hard to follow lifestyle change in reality. Think about all the free thinkers: Socrates at the top of that list...he smilingly drank poison to save what he believed in, that is true free-thinking and liberation, not caring for life for the sake of freedom one deserves.

Before success hugs the freethinkers - hate spits on them and people scorn, if they are lucky enough to survive that spite, they will change the course of the world. If they don't survive their message will be lost in oblivion without world ever realizing their existence.

You have a very strong message here mate, all the Known Free Thinkers killed themselves!

That is something to ponder on my friend, thanks!

Free thinking is ok in as much it is positive, quoting a leader...
"Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny".
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi

Liberalists, free thinkers and so on are living in the world of their own. They will always get frustrated and end miserably. What sustains man is its source, no two way about it. Man did not make himself, and then cannot be free. Disconnect from your source, you are bound to end dangerously.
Thanks for your academic exercise.

When you say source, do you care to expatiate more on that?
