Objective Philosophy is a place for people who believe that philosophy, as a fundamentally non-contradictory system-- is attainable to man, and that man is able to sustain and operate this system competently to achieve a better way of life.
It is for those who accept that knowledge ought not to be a mere construct of ‘individual point of view’ and wish to further their experience and knowledge within a pro-intellectual, objectively oriented structure.
Furthermore, this site is a place for those who believe that man is an intellectual animal, and anything less than an existence of pervasive thinking and knowledge, is a debasement, not an advancement of human energy.
Too often objective thinkers in the realm of philosophy (and often other fields) are in the position having to ‘re-invent the wheel’ just to explain themselves to what is often family, friends, co-workers and community who refuse to accept the most basic tenets of common sense and rationality.
On a political and social level, Objective Philosophy has been established to give a voice and community to people against the hegemony of subjectivism, relativism, and post-modern thought that has such a curiously immovable chokehold over the modern mind.
So, why not go to any other so-called ‘Objectivist’ or ‘neo-objectivist’ site? The answer to this lies in the fact that other sites of the ‘objectivist’ genre are often agenda-based and tend to be too closed minded for any real philosophical thought to become or remain conceptual rather than dogmatic.
The flip side to this is any general philosophy site burdened by the opposite problem: too open minded to have any care for solid convictions that can operate in practical reality.
Meanwhile, the world continues to spiral into an unknown and precarious future.
The world is plagued by a single paradigm monumental in its force and importance in the course of history: that paradigm is the shift from intellectual, objective belief-- to emotional, subjective and mystical thought.
It is no longer enough to say that ‘society’ merely has a need to turn itself around.
If the events of merely the last ten years of our new century are there to tell us anything, they should tell us that the downward spiral is not merely a trend or direction, but a movement already well on its way.
