I love Ayn Rand,therefore I am stupid...whatever. I vote "strict constructionist", or as close as I can get.

I have a copy of Atlas Shrugged locked away in my safe.
I will never sell it. It will be the most important book of this millenium.

Theory and practice are more alike in theory than theory and practice are in practice.

"I love being a proponent of a philosophy that allows me to "shut down" those who disagree with it so easily and completely, and with their own words."

AND

"But there is a second faction, run by Objectivist philosopher David Kelley, who started and runs the Objectivist Institute, a competing organization whose view of Objectivism is that it is not complete, and can be improved."

Question: if you go around, all day every day, with the idea that your philosophy is "incomplete" and "can be improved," how are you in a position to "shut anyone down"? Not to mention the fact that belief in a "higher power" contradicts the axioms of Objectivism or any other secular philosophy.

INCREDIBLE!
Over 800 posts and mounting and, IMHO, there aren't six intellectuals of any stripe that give a hang about Ayn Rand.

I just stumbled across this thread.

Why has RJCogburn been suspended or banned?
