ABOUT ME

At some point CS deleted my description and other info. Grr!

PHILOSOPHY

Atheist, very progressive politically. I think Kant's categorical imperative is a better moral compass than any religion; basically it's a fancy formulation of the golden rule. Do unto others...!

I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.
--Stephen Roberts

Music, Movies, and Books

Good music transcends genres. That said, I tend to like well-produced and -composed pop, acoustic/indie rock, and jazz.

Music is the greatest of the arts for me because it cuts through everything, needs no aids. It is. It simply is.
