The Novice is my notebook for thinking in public (¶26.1).
Entries are posted occasionally and revised frequently. Most are interconnected. They're also numbered sequentially by year to track how my thinking evolves.
Where to Start
¶26.1 explains why the site exists.
In political theory, ¶26.4 on critical liberalism and ¶26.3 on "Integrative Liberal Democracy" sketch my broad views. ¶22.1 offers a fun little thought experiment on freedom.
In contemplative studies, ¶22.1 recounts where I started; ¶22.3 explores what doesn't work. I'm still figuring out what does.

Entries are prone to mistakes, puns, malapropisms, and damnable half-truths. Few are useful or intelligent. The site's title explains all.
