- Freethought was the practice of people deciding for themselves what was the truth about various subjects, important and unimportant, like religion, science, politics, philosophy, and just about any other subjects that came up in life. Within the Galactic Republic, and even the Confederacy of Independent Systems, all citizens were encouraged to trust in the Force to help them decide what was their own truth, because while the Jedi and Sith always insisted there were some absolute truths, most people, even many Jedi, saw most truths as relative, and thus different truths were fitting to each individual sentient.
- Freethought is a philosophical doctrine that says beliefs should be formed by scientific, empirical and logical enquiry and is not to be compromised by dogamtic or else fallacious beliefs that restrict logical reasonng. Freethought is sometimes seen as synonymous with atheism or agnosticism. Freethought is a system of belief based on and the Scientific method and which seeks to avoid ideas based on simple faith. Those who practise freethought are called, naturally enough, freethinkers.

Freethought is sometimes seen as synonymous with atheism or agnosticism. Freethought is a system of belief based on and the Scientific method and which seeks to avoid ideas based on simple faith. Freethought can also apply to fields outside religion like politics, consumer choice and analysis of paranormal claims. indeed freethought is not actually the same as atheism. One might imagine that freethinkers could, at least theoretically, find scientific evidence for religion. Despite this as evidence which supports religious beliefs is non-existent, freethinkers are almost always atheists or agnostics. Those who practise freethought are called, naturally enough, freethinkers.
