I prefer to think of myself as an obscurantist. Heavy on the rant.
ReplyDeleteActually, I think I would have to be a theistic objectivist. Rand's cutting through the epistemological BS, the "knowing whether you know" claptrap makes it quite attractive to me.
So you're Ayn Rant, eh?
DeleteYeah, the "I know/blind faith" was always a turn off to me. I like having things explained.
I recognise that belief in God is somewhat (!) antithetical to Rand's philosophy; still, I find her thinking most useful, aspecially her rejection of scepticism.
ReplyDeleteIn her later years, Rand rediscovered Judaism. One "know it all" in a "patriot" group back in the ninties, "challenged" me by asking how I could be a Christian & an Objectivist at the same time. "After all, Rand was an athiest, hmmmmmmm?"
DeleteHe seemed to have left out the above fact of her last years. If Rand herself could get back into Judaism, then surely, little ole me could be a Christian.
As for scepticism (Especially in regard to herself.), Ms. Rand was VERY good at rejecting it!
