Hello everyone, I am 24 and live in Des Moines, Iowa. I just joined the board and this is my first post. I joined after seeing Stefbot's video about Ron Paul: Politics vs Personal Liberty. I was the one that made the recent comment that the "against me" argument should be backed up with...

Hello all. I'm extremely glad I found this site. I'm trying to think of a decent metaphor for my feelings of late. I suppose... well, I've had the feeling lately that I'm either the only sane person or the most insane person in New York City. First, a brief "about me" - Grew...

Hello people, I'm never sure where to start when it comes to personal introduction but: I'm British I'm a student I realised the important questions have never really been dealt with at school Found Philosophy and started to read through the volumes of work Realising Philosopy was the act...

I read Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged when I was 15 (nearly two years ago now) and adored it. A friend of mine found the Freedomain pod-casts when I was 16 (one year ago) and he quickly became an anarco-capitalist.

Hello, I am Anne. I not normally into forums, but I am hoping this place will be a nice antidote to daily life. I attend a public high school, so you can see why an antidote may be needed. With my unusual (read 'anarco-capitalist') views on politics, morals, etc., I have difficulties finding...

Hmmm, how to begin? I suppose I'll start with how I came to find this site. To be brief, someone submitted the podcast feed to digg . I listened to a dozen or so episodes, and was thoroughly intrigued. So now here I am, because I would love to be convinced that there is a way to mix individual freedom...

Putty Tat: No. I mean, there are degrees of everything, but even the slightest degree of Attila-ism is at least slightly immoral, and the slightest degree a witch doctor is rational is the slightest degree they are moral. I disagree with some of Rand's and Peikoff's conclusion, like about sex...
