Franchising the Philosophy of Objectivism
by Barry Kayton
Basking in the virtual sunshine of Galt's Gulch, contemplating the implications of Objectivist epistemology or applying the Objectivist ethics in our day to day choices, we tend to experience the philosophy of Objectivism in a deeply personal way. So it is easy to forget that Objectivism is a world view which we first encountered with curiosity or excitement or perhaps with skepticism. Whatever our individual responses were, we encountered the philosophy as an outsider leaving a world of conventional thinking and entering a world in which everything is coloured with a new, scarcely describable light. But even if we know that Objectivism is a world view that exists independently of our personal experience, it must be foreign to our minds to think of the philosophy as a product. But that is precisely what it is. Objectivism is a product that initially took the form of fiction and later expanded in the form of non-fiction. Objectivism is a product primarily of Ayn Rand's mind. But is is also a product in ongoing development at The Objectivist Center and a product offered for easier consumption here at SoloHQ.

FAQ: What is Objectivism?
Answer by William Thomas My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute. Atlas Shrugged Objectivism is the philosophy of rational individualism founded by Ayn Rand (1905-1982). In novels such as The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged , Rand dramatized her ideal man, the producer who lives by his own effort and does not give or receive the undeserved, who honors achievement and rejects envy. Rand laid out the details of her world-view in nonfiction books such as The Virtue of Selfishness and Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal Objectivism holds that there is no greater moral goal than achieving happiness. But one cannot achieve happiness by wish or whim. Fundamentally, it requires rational respect for the facts of reality, including the facts about our human nature and needs. Happiness requires that one live by objective principles, including moral integrity and respect for the rights of others. Politically, Objectivists advocate laissez-faire capitalism. Under capitalism, a strictly limited government protects each person's rights to life, liberty, and property and forbids that anyone initiate force against anyone else. The heroes of Objectivism are achievers who build businesses, invent technologies, and create art and ideas, depending on their own talents and on trade with other independent people to reach their goals.

Objectivist tenets
Objective reality
Reality is what it is, independent of our beliefs or desires. No two facts of reality can contradict each other- this is an important test of truth . Everything that exists has a specific identity and a specific nature that determines how it acts. Nature is to be explained in terms of nature, without reference to the supernatural
Reason
The mind apprehends reality through a process of reasoning based on sensory observation. Reasoning is the art of building from perceptions to concepts and propositions. In this way, conclusions are built up from the evidence . Reasoning, or logic , follows certain, non-arbitrary rules which must be adhered to if we wish to reach valid conclusions. These rules include non-contradictory identification and grouping by essentials. By applying the rules of logic consistently, we can achieve objectively valid knowledge about reality. (Compare:

The eBook Half Price Special is being offered during, " The Great Debate ." This is an all new updated edition of the eBook.This is a temporary promotional price. [The paper version has not been updated.] NOTE: The ebook available through BookSurge is not printable and requires an Acrobat reader. The one on this page is self-contained and printable.] Many politically conservative homosexuals are attracted to Objectivism because of Objectivism's emphasis on individual liberty. There is a movement among many of these homosexuals and their sympathizers to take over Objectivism and change it from a philosophy to a, "movement," or "way of life;" to make it inclusive of ideas and practices inimical to Objectivism. The movement repudiates anyone calling themselves an Objectivist who does not support homosexual practices, as well as, embracing them as normal, moral, and benevolent, while claiming themselves and their movement to be the "true Objectivism." It is this movement this book analyzes and exposes. Primarily meant for those with an interest in Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism, the book deals broadly with the fundamental issues of normality, morality, and sexuality, and will be useful to anyone interested in the philosophical, social, or personal nature of these concepts. Anyone concerned with what is known as the "homosexual agenda," will find this book valuable.

Objectivism realism or even for intrinsicism , in opposition to subjectivism . In the twentieth century, the novelist-philosopher Ayn Rand appropriated the term as the name for her philosophy (defined here under Randianism ). However, there have been other objectivist thinkers even in the recent past, such as the logician and philosopher Kurt Godel, who once said: "It is by viewing together a number of facts that we come to believe in objectivism. Philosophy consists of pointing things out rather than arguments." [References from conceptualism individualism intrinsicism Randianism ... relativism , and subjectivism Optimism pessimism . In this sense, for example, eudaimonism is a form of optimism. The popular usage of optimism is related to the meaning described here, but it is not as fundamental or "metaphysical". [References from Aristotelianism meliorism pessimism positivism ... realism , and transcendentalism Organicism holism , especially in popular usage, but holism simply says that all parts of reality are interconnected and does not claim that the earth or the universe is a living thing. The word organicism is sometimes used in aesthetics to refer to the idea (which goes back at least to Aristotle) that a work of art should be an "organic whole" with all its parts or aspects serving one central purpose.
