About

“The Crowd is Untruth” is a Kierkegaardian clarion to self-authenticity, self-accountability and resolute action. It suggests that only from the deepest recesses of the self can one choose to become that which one desires to be and what one is destined to be. The philosophical approach to life is an avenue worth taking.

This blog will host an exploration of our philosophical forebears as well as my own reflections, ruminations and inquiries. The only theme of this blog is that which its title suggests: a striving to understand the human condition for oneself rather than relying upon others to think for one’s self. This understanding sometimes occurs against the crowd, sometimes with the crowd. But it ought not come from the crowd. Hence, the crowd is untruth.

I am currently a graduate student in philosophy at Texas A&M University, pursuing a masters degree. Much of my work will be posted on this blog. I also blog over at Vox Nova, where I am able to combine many of my philosophical interests with things theological and political.
