@chaosprime I am actually curious; you know, about your philosophical influences? You seem like you thought things through.
@FullPresence funny, thing that most makes me feel like her heart was in the right place is her description of Roark's design for a church

@chaosprime It was. At her best, she could embody the best that liberalism (and that's what 'libertarians are) stood for. -
@FullPresence her rejection (with Marx!) of dualism was one of her better points, & makes her claiming by god-botherers incredibly offensive -
@FullPresence of course without that we wouldn't get the gorgeous Oxford comma failure, "Dedicated to my parents, Ayn Rand and God" -
@chaosprime Yep. One of the reasons why I want to take back Rand. Plus, what she said about the worst effects of religion? She was right. -
@FullPresence the ol' memory banks don't seem to be pulling that up… what'd she say? -
@chaosprime Basically that it is the ultimate surrender of thinking. -
@FullPresence oh, well, yeah. or at least a species thereof. depending on whether your usage of "religion" requires woo or not. -
@chaosprime I think LaVey was honest about that; yes, it does, but if you do so knowingly somehow it make sense. - 4 more replies
