I'm David McMullan an Englishman living in China. I'm a philosophy grad from the University of Greenwich and do my post-grad milarkey at the University of Wales.
It is my pleasure to find this forum after suffering years of innane rubbish on the Yahoo! answers philosophy board.
My philosophical interests include the philosophy of religion/metaphysics, epistemology and the philosophy of science. I'm allergic to pretty much anything postmodern, and half of the stuff post- Kantian (with a couple of notable exceptions).
My post-grad study is on innate ideas and the transendental and my favourite football team is West Ham United.
I'm nearly 41 and married with 2 grown up kids and have a penchant for Spike Milligan.
I live and work in Chongqing, China as a writer.
I'm particularly fond of beer.
I'm a Gnostic Christian (of the type that drinks beer).
I'm really going to enjoy chatting/arguing/agreeing/formulating with you.

If I can just try really hard to put down the guns and Bibles and burning crosses long enough to take in some book-learnin’...
