Freedom, truth and human dignity

Piotr Ochotny

Abstract

This paper does an analysis the relation between truth and freedom which is most concisely defined in Jesus Christ’s words: “And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 8:32). The study proceeds in three stages. First of all, I will briefly dwell on history of freedom. Secondly, I will present Christian understanding of freedom. Thirdly, I will study the interface between freedom and truth, highlighting the nature of human freedom, the relation between freedom and responsibility, and the relation between freedom and the truth of human existence itself.
