    "People who agree with me" is a popular definition.

    Actually, that definition works for "moral" and "logical" in R&S, too.

    A system of belief. Its used by people who are not confident enough in themselves and believe they will be blessed by having faith in a higher power. A structured shakedown of peoples hard earned money willingly given to the church to which the chruch pays no taxes. If followed to the very word, a person is enveloped into an enviornment where they have no choice and the slightest doubt will cast them to hell when they expire. Its much like herding sheep, only this time the herder will smite you the second you think otherwise.

    in my OWN opinion, free thinker is someone that does not denounce someone elses idea or thoughts because they do not match theirs.

    Freethinkers tend to be atheists, agnostics, humanists, and those people who otherwise don't label themselves as anything but skeptics.
