Until I reached the end of your piece I was with Elkayim because for me the words 'Liberty' and 'Freedom' have a subtle but very definite difference. Perhaps it is something phonetic? 'Liberty' has a feeling of grudging limitation about it, whereas 'Freedom' with that long vowel sound in the middle has more explosive power to it. But, once you explain the nuances of the language, the greater complexity of the situation becomes clear. Thank you.Alexhttp://thinkinginfragments.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
