Reading List

I'm currently reading a few books recommended to me by my buddy K.C.

One is http://jim.com/treason.htm

The other is The True Believer.

I'm really developing a love for political philosophy, and philosophy in general. I used to shun these topics as silly wastes of time. They probably are, as life is too short to waste on spending one's mental energy thinking about how things are. I'm deep into True Believer right now. It's a quick read, but a worthwhile one. Looking at what prerequisites there are for the development of mass movements or a lack thereof. All of the things he mentions have occurred to me in the past. Likening religion to fascism is extremely accurate as I think anyone with a shred of observational skills and the ability to step out of their societal brainwashing can see.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to more like this.

I need to ramp up my reading if I'm going to keep my 2012 plan to read more.
