I wrote this essay about a month ago and it got published in my school's creative non-fiction publication. I've published it on my blog, as well; here is the link:

It's a compilation of thoughts I had lingering in the back of mind that I wanted to put down, thoughts that came from different sources that I read (most, if not all, indirectly from SOTT) but that all connected to essentially conclude the same exact thing - that human beings are not 'themselves'. I use Valerie's autobiography from V for Vendetta, many quotes from Dr. Stout's Myth of Sanity, Orage's "Are We Awake?", Gurdjieff, Don Juan, Mouravieff, and even the Gnostic sayings of Jesus as sources to make my case for the 'insanity' of modern humanity. I tried to make it as easy a read as I could for those who are not yet familiar with the material.
Any comments/critiques welcome :)
