[Objectivist]

My name is Tim from Pawtucket, RI. I attend Blackstone Academy Charter School, a public school. I am originally from Boston, MA and my family is from Kharpoot.

I am not a Christian. I am a Randian Objectivist. Thus, reason is my only absolute. I do not have faith, I only have knowledge of what does and doesn't exist.

Manok parov, for now.

Welcome. As a libertarian I like Rand. I've read some of her works, but I don't follow the cult of Rand and Objectivism, while acknowledging that I am a libertarian.

As Western Armenians say, "Pari yegar..."

Can you really have "knowledge"? Knowing constitutes being necessarily correct. You may not be.

Is a Randian Objectivist a Broad Sense Atheist then? Or do you have a problem with that term?

That aside, welcome to the forum, Tim.

I have read her as well, but not a fan.

I have knowledge by using my senses to gain perceptual data of the Universe, then I use those percepts to form larger concepts.

Oh, and A=A

What is a Broad Sense Atheist?
I am an atheist, but I am not anti-religion. I am an advocate of Reason, not a religion basher.

That aside, welcome to the forum, Tim.

Thank You.

I'm not a particular fan of libertarians (I would never vote for libertarian president) but you are probably one of the most rational people on this forum so I'll live with you.

A "Broad Sense Atheist" is an Atheist basically. lol It is used as opposed to "Narrow Sense Atheist", which refers to a specific religion. Like a Muslim is not a BSA, obviously, but a NSA towards all other religions but Islaam. Stupid theology terms.

You are a BSA, as am I. Religion is culture. Reason is something to follow. (don't mean to sound worshipy)

Anyway...off topic. We can continue this later I'm sure. lol
