Introduction.

The purpose of this first post to the blog is to introduce the subject of Christian Egoism to the reader, whether this reader be me (the originally intended reader) or any other passers-by.

The purpose of this blog is a self-analysis of the topic at hand--my own thoughts, analysis or ramblings on the subject. My current research on Egoism has found analyses that I believe fail to answer the important questions of, "what is Egoism?" To me, Egoism makes sense, at least the version of it known as Psychological Egoism.

I hope to somehow make more sense of it than what I've read about it so far. It's a daunting task, I know, especially since I am neither a student of philosophy enrolled in a college or university, nor am I a professor of any type, but I believe it's worth the effort. I am just a regular Joe who is literate and fairly intelligent, with an interest in philosophy, and the Socratic mindset that all I know is that I don't know anything.

What I've pondered so far seems to make sense, at least to me, and I hope to lay down a solid logical foundation for Egoism, and to show its compatibility with Christianity. Once again, a daunting task indeed, but wouldn't it be interesting if I actually did come up with some new perspective that no one has yet to discover?
