In other words, Objectivism.
- haZard_OS 8y agoI urge you to read Spinoza for yourself if you are under the impression that his philosophy is like Ayn Rand's. I assure you, they are worlds apart.
- baldfat 8y agoOn the general level, Objectivism and Rationalism differ because the former is a philosophical system encompassing metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and politics. Rationalism is a particular epistemological viewpoint, and not a system. So how does the Objectivist Epistemology differ from Rationalism? Rationalism in its strongest form is the position that reason is the only means by which to acquire knowledge. It is usually contrasted with empiricism, the view that our senses are the primary means of knowledge. https://atlassociety.org/commentary/commentary-blog/4107-rationalism-and-objectivism https://atlassociety.org/commentary/commentary-blog/4107-rat...
