My philosophy completely dominates my opinion of the book. I enjoy reading the book because I think the character of Meursault is interesting but I find him very annoying also. I am a firm believer in God (I'm a Greek Orthodox Christian) and therefore believe very much in the importance of my life and those around me. I believe and have faith in things which affect my morals and the way I live my life. Meursault's "I don't care" attitude bothers me a lot and because of what I believe, my opinion of books and the connections I make with characters in books is strongly influenced. Meursalt's philosophy of going with the flow and not caring about things and mine strongly clash. He would rather please someone who is completely immoral than displease him because he doesn't care. Even if I liked someone, I would never support his immoral actions.
