Protagonism: The Autodidactic Religion?
Most of the topics I write about can be considered philosophy, but here's where I post the ones about morals, metaphysics, and anything that would probably fall under "religion" if my ideology counts as that.
For a short-and-sweet label for my ideology, I've settled on "Protagonism". It isn't named after me, isn't easy to confuse with anything else, and isn't an outrageous attempt to co-opt an English word (like Ayn Rand's "Objectivism"). The story of the name is explained here:
What's a Protagonist?
My core beliefs:
There's no "why" in morality
A formal moral system
Notes on choice and morality
Pretty much everything below is just a corollary of the above. I don't consider the rest of it "part of Protagonism" so much as just the rejection of bogus ideas that are popular.

Why you should be an anarchist
Pragmatic downsides of government
Revolution is self-defense
