Introducing: Me!
Posted: August 30th, 2019, 2:34 pm
Hello good folks,
My name is Greenham and I'm new here. I have no educational or philosophical background in philosophy (apart from a 101 class I took about 12 years ago; apart from that I'm an autodidact and ) but I hope to compensate for that by being a good reader and an overall curious person. My main philosophical interest comes from my long-standing and recently intensified doubts in my life-long religious beliefs, but I recognize that philosophy holds value for basically all domains of knowledge so I'm eager to learn more.
I've read a few of the philosophy classics but a lot of my knowledge comes from conversations and perusing Wikipedia or the Sanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, or reading other forums.
I found this website via Google after being dissatisfied with the volume of unanswered questions on /r/askphilosophy and a similar dissatisfaction with Philosophy Stack Exchange. This looks to be a lively forum so I'm excited!
I'd rather not get too into personal details but I hope what I've provided gives you a perspective on why I'm here and what I hope to contribute and get out of this place.
Cheers!
