Wel­come!

My name is Shawne P. D. Mar­tin and I have a pas­sion for “fig­ur­ing things out”.  I chose to study Phi­los­o­phy because I believe there is noth­ing more impor­tant than being able to think and ana­lyze ideas prop­erly.  From busi­ness deci­sions to writ­ing that per­fect com­ment on some ran­dom blog, it’s impor­tant to have a reli­able way of choos­ing the right path.  In my opin­ion, noth­ing beats a good dose of log­i­cal rea­son­ing, and over my life the lessons I’ve learned through­out my stud­ies have been a tremen­dous advan­tage out in that big scary place we call the world.

I tend to express my thoughts in music and poetry, but after think­ing about this for many years, I decided to finally try my hand at blog­ging as well.  I fig­ure there can never be enough skep­tic sites.  I’ve fallen vic­tim many times to var­i­ous incred­i­ble ways of thought and I fig­ure that one of the best ways to anchor my mind is to ded­i­cate myself to a solid out­putting of what I am think­ing.  I really hope you enjoy my writ­ing and find it help­ful in your life.

In 2006 I attained my B.A. in Phi­los­o­phy from Con­cor­dia Uni­ver­sity College.

I appre­ci­ate your com­ments and I hope to learn a lit­tle from you as well.
