Herding Cats

I take the title of this blog from the view that getting anyone to see reason on anything is like herding cats. Most people are far less interested in truth than they are in comfortably maintaining their assumptions and prejudices about the world and themselves. I am hardly immune from this phenomenon.

Additionally, keeping my thoughts and ideas organized can also be as difficult as herding cats. I am told that blogs with a narrow focus tend to be more successful than those with a broader orientation, but whether others will characterize my interests as broad or narrow remains to be seen.

Generally speaking, I am interested in political issues from a moderately libertarian perspective, as well as issues of ethics and morality.
