Getting Started... The Death of Ideology

I'm writing this blog for myself - anyone else who wants to read and comment on the ramblings that appear is more than welcome to but I'm not writing it with anyone in mind other than myself. This is partially an experiment to see where a string of thoughts - my own thoughts - will ultimately lead.

I've called this blog the 'Common Sensorium' and am signing all my posts 'The Common Sensester' - which nicely summarizes my reason for starting this blog. I believe IDEOLOGY is now DEAD! Anyone who engages in it, or limits their thought process as a result of it, is a fool, end of story.

Ideaology has pretty much been the root cause of most of the world's problems for the last... well, pretty much since recorded history began. We must move beyond it - as long as their are ideologues, idiocy will rein supreme. It's time to start focusing on what works in real life, not theories. If it's unclear what works, it's better to have no ideology in place at all than it is to have an overarching ideology biasing our outcomes and divinely inspired ability to think originally.

How does one live without ideology? Simple, you just live! You stop worrying about heaven and hell, what other people think about you. You throw popular notions of morality in the trash bin. You wake up every morning with a sense of wonderment and the knowledge that you are living without biases to interject into your every free thought. Free you mind... the rest will follow!
