Moshe Rabbeinu may have been history's first "freedom fighter," but he certainly wasn�t the only one. Centuries later, Darwin and Freud attempted to free humanity from the oppression of religion and conscience. After all, said Freud, if people aren�t free to express their basest urges, they can't be happy. But modern day society proves that freedom from morality does not equal happiness. If anything, it has made them more depressed than ever.
Rabbi Shaya Cohen�s pre-Pesach shiur makes it plain. The ultimate freedom is self-control.
