About this Blog

NOTE: This blog is now obsolete and no longer being updated. Please see Objectivism for Intellectuals. All content on this blog can be found there. All comments should be made there.

The purpose of this blog is to explain certain ideas in the philosophy of Objectivism to everyone, but especially intellectuals, college undergraduates, students of Objectivism and others with backgrounds in philosophy. In so doing, this blog will answer some of the more intellectually sophisticated critiques of Ayn Rand’s philosophy, while maintaining high standards of intellectual discourse. Posts will vary considerably, both in subject and in intended audience.
Please see the About page for more.
