I’m quite busy and don’t have much time to engage in this discussion but I can offer this lead to your question: Because the Kantian innate structures of the human mind are supposedly universal to all people, he redefined objective reality as collective subjectivity. This was the only standard of “truth” left for him since he cut the human mind off from external reality. The only other alternative would have been personal subjectivity, which is no standard at all. I think that is why certain elements in the culture are so hung up on consensus. They may not realize it, but they ultimately got it from Kant.

What about just helping to support ARI's "education funnel?" http://www.aynrand.org/site/PageServer?pagename=about_ari

Is there anything like this for non-fiction writing?

I really liked this movie. A relentless pursuit indeed. I think perseverance is the essence of the main character. What do you guys think?

Which experience are you refering to?

What do you mean exactly? How does socialism embrace reason?

Ok, this got my attention. Shocking...

I had fun with it and wrote in "Donald Duck" in the "race" where no one was running.

I voted Republican because I'm not convinced that theocracy is a real threat in my lifetime. However I could, and would, change my mind if the existence of such a threat could be demonstrated to me. One thing that alarms me is this: I have heard that Christian intellectuals are starting to make inroads into academia. I don't know how many, or how rapidly, but I do see it as a potential threat. If the leftists are on their way out, they will leave an intellectual power vacuum. It looks like plenty of Christian intellectuals know this and are moving to fill that void. If we Objectivists cannot get enough of our own intellectuals in fast enough, we could be in trouble. One thing I am certain of: religious threat or not, ARI’s mission must succeed. If not, our civilization will go down hill fast one way or another, and in the next few decades.

That was a really good video!
