Raison 'detre: Another blog

Simply: I want to force myself to think through serious problems and issues that affect existence; political, social, personal. I want to do it without silly arguments and name-calling from people for whom thought, evidence and logic is simply shit on the road.
I admit to arrogance without pride. I just have very little experience meeting or discussing issues with people who are able to follow the evidence, the work of the intellectual giants, and the consequences of those two pinnacles to the application of logic and reason.
I often make some leaps by postulating 'IF" and "THEN" to reach for probabilities and possibilities when describing solutions and I hate having to defend each posited variable as if they were stated values.
I love to admit that I am wrong because it means I have learnt something new. Sadly, discourse rarely leads to such confessions though reading often does.
I want to have my say. I want to record my ideas. I want to think freely and freely express my thoughts.
