Existential freedom is the freedom to choose the meaning and purpose of one’s life.

For centuries, Religious Freedom has been an issue all over the world. From Adolf Hitler and his Nazi soldiers in Germany to the European Wars of Religion. Unfortunately, some countries still have religious conflicts today. Luckily, the United States of America is a society built on freedom.
