So far, I am continuing to enjoy this book. I have just finished the essay entitled, “Nice People”. I found that Russell described the dilemma I have faced in interacting with nice people who seemingly do not support many human rights. The mental gymnastics it takes to continue to remain friends with those people can be mentally exhausting.

This is my intro to Bertrand Russell and I’m enjoying so far.

This is the first time I am reading anything from Bertrand Russell. This has been a great introduction into religious “studies” and philosophy.
