A CTL of 1 means that fireangel is a contributing member of Captain Cynic.
Well to begin with, there are numerous grammatical errors on each page. I think that kind of sets the stage for what the author has to say. It seems very uneducated by simply reading the words, regardless of the message they attempt to get across.
Furthermore, I feel that the entrees are rather opinionated as opposed to researched in any way. Now I realize that philosophy is not a science and therefore requires no experimental research to prove its validity, but I feel the concepts expressed in the pamphlet are based upon mere observation and reflection.
It is a good attempt at creating a scholarly work, but I'm afraid I see it as nothing more than a personal journal that has been edited and pieced together to look more professional.
I do like the quotes that are placed at the end of each section, and I feel that it gives a good foundation for further thought by the reader, but in this case, as I was reading, I was thinking of ways to disprove what was being said, and the fact that disproving many of these for myself was fairly easy just further exemplifies to me that this work is not quite ready to be professionally published.
It doesn't quite follow contemporary ideas in the field of philosophy.

Thanks Fireangel for reviewing my post. You have mentioned that disproving many of things was fairly easy for yourself. It would be interesting to know such things.
