Stranger Journal 5

My philosophy as a reader makes me love Meursault. I believe that everyone should act in the exact code of what they believe. They should not be influenced by any man-made outside force. Meursault does not base any of his own views on anything except his own life. However, I do have a moral code myself, though its based all on my own mind, not any religion. Also, I am not as indifferent about things as Meursault. It makes me laugh when he is completely emotionless about certain things, because I would get pretty worked up about some of the things that happen to him. These differences between me and his character don't make me biased against the book though. I completely understand why Albert Camus created such a character.
