Pride - TBD

I am thinking about writing something, perhaps rather extensively, on the subject of pride.

Rationality And Spontaneity

One might think that rationality favors or causes a non-spontaneous mode of decision-making. I think this can't really be the case for a through-and-through rationalist. ❧

Depressish

Yes, let's call it that. That's what this 'therapy' blog might try to sort out.

Naming is important. I am not sure that what I am or have been experiencing is truly a real authentic depression. And I really don't want to claim something that is not correct. Often I am not really sure there's a problem at all. What is a problem? Or predicament. And it doesn't matter what it 'is'. There are simply aspects, if that's what they are, that I feel might be helped by some rational inquiry. Rational in the sense of applying non-delusional thought, if such can be mustered.

That's Between You And What

I thought of the pattern of expression like 'that is between you and your god' and similar.

Is there an equivalent for a rationalist? Maybe "that's between you and your conscience".

Treating the conscience as something separate that is stronger than yourself. Actually not so different, then.

Aphorism Time

Sufficiently advanced rationality is indistinguishable from apathy.

Starting Up

Right! So I think the time is right to start posting on this blog. Not enough time right now to hammer out any real content, but I think I can do it pretty soon now. I think the first real post might be about what should be on the cognitive horizon of any sufficiently pervasively rational (scientific?) thinker: the ultimate meaninglessness of everything and everyone. Especially writing blog posts about it.

Foreshadowing

Just to make will out of wish, I suppose.

Subjects: Truth. Will. Morality. Conscience. Motivation. Trust. Community. Ligion.

That's enough. Not an exact specification. No promises. Later.

Added subjects: Communication. Emotion. Responsibility.
