I just registered and wanted to say Hello. I'm interested in Existential thinking. Lately i have been reading Albert Camus essays. I'm looking forward to some interesting talk and exchanges.

@CORGIGUY,
Welcome Corgiguy!

Though there is no existential philosophy section per se, you may want to check out some of the threads in the Young Philosophers section. A lot of the threads have a great deal of substance relating to existential thought that could benefit from your interest.

As for your interest in Albert Camus? that's absurd. Get it? Anyone? Anyone??? No? LOL!

But anywho, exchange away and enjoy the forum!

@CORGIGUY,
Welcome to the Philosophy Forum Corgiguy! Thanks for the intro... never heard of Albert but look forward to hearing a bit about what you are reading and also getting into some of the ongoing discussions. Make yourself at home!

@Justin,
Welcome to the forums!

I will be reading some Camus for the first time as part of my World Lit class. I look forward to some conversation on his work.
