The Idol of the Individual
In "The Idol of the Individual," we explore the fallacy of believing that isolation from the crowd leads to inherent goodness and truth. While the herd can silence individual thought, the individual can also embody selfishness and cruelty.

Rules are not truth but without them, truth is impossible. They serve as the scaffolding for freedom, allowing us to navigate chaos and seek deeper understanding. This post explores the delicate balance between rules and freedom, and how they shape our human experience.
