I find I spend much of my online time at a few sites, this one, http://gnosis.org, and various libertarian sites. 3 years ago I hadn’t heard of either these sites or their subject matter.
3 years ago I’d been a loyal republican all my life, knew nothing of economics, and assumed I was an old-fashioned Christian as I’d been raised. Now I’m an anarcho-libertarian, Austrain economics follower, and a Gnostic Christian (although I think that most Christians would not accept a gnostic as one of them.)
It is not strange that all these subjects are based on freedom and clear logic. Such choices of character naturally fit together.
If you’re not familiar with gnosticism, a book by that title by Dr. S. A. Hoeller is a good introduction.
