Just a short introductory note from across the ocean. I am a retired accountant who studied philosophy ages ago only to realize that the more I read, the less I knew, and the more years I spent at it the less employable I would be; so I switched to numbers.

So, now, I would like to relive my inspired days of quiet contemplation, and revive my sense of cogito ergo dum ! :rolleyes:

I am, in the main, a Humanist. To me the only hope for the species is if we treat each other as sacred instead of looking beyond the Universe for salvation. I used to read a lot of Kierkegaard, but then I became an atheist, so now I read him ironically. :whistling: Now, I enjoy reading and discussing any philosophy that attempts to place our Minds and Hearts at the centre.

I enjoy discussions; and I enjoy words and thoughts, especially when they help me to see behind the words and thoughts.... :listening:
