The Objectivism Book Study met through 2022 to study Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand, by Leonard Peikoff.
Welcome to the Objectivism Book Study (Week 17) — Certainty and Context.
Our reading this week was:
Ch. 5 – Certainty as contextual 171-181
Ch. 5 – Mysticism and skepticism as denials of reason 182-186
Is science nothing but a progression of exploded theories? Is all knowledge only relative? Never fully validated? Never absolute, immutable, or certain?
What can Christians learn about these issues from the unique philosophical system of Objectivism?
