How far should our freedom stretch? What responsibilities come with freedom? Can our connections with others limit or enhance our freedom? Find out why humanists value freedom so highly and the responsibilities they believe we have to ourselves and to others. Modelling our lives using a piece of string, students will gain an insight into the humanist perspective on human nature, our potential, our ties to others, and the conclusions humanists reach about how we should live.
