Oddly enough, I'm not the only one contributing to this blog. Two characters I've created, Karen and Madelynn, also play different parts in discussing our topics. So don't be surprised if you see different voices in the posts. After all. it takes a variety of perspectives to get the best views.

Sound Players

At certain points in the Blog posts, you'll come across little players like the one below. Just hit the play button, give it some time to load and buffer, and the music will play normally. If there's more than one in a post, be sure to pause the first one before playing it.

I claim no rights to the music being played, in case anyone tries to legally screw me over. :)

Players 2

If there isn't any music and you want some in the background, just use this little tune. It fits well with any post.

And please, no grammar corrections. I know they'll be there, but let them be.

Some Irrational Cognition

I've been thinking about what I consider is the classic conflict of philosophy between the facts we can deduce rationally with science and the concepts we form based on our intuitions and emotions that we can't really explain to others. This post tries to put a sympathetic light on the second side, since I feel it gets the short end of the stick a little more often.








Logic and emotion are their own rewards. And we stand by that here.
