A Commenter Unpacks Some Randian Errors

Darren in comments points us to his careful dissection of some Randian shell games typical of her epistemology. Not a lot to disagree with, particularly this intro para:
Alisa Rosenbaum's brief "Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology" has too many errors, contradictions, non-sequiturs, and loose ends to critique concisely in a single post. 
For that reason, see also ARCHNblog's extended series on Rand's epistemology.

    Geesh. That Darren, what a whackjob. A Creationist nutter, to be sure...

    Actually, ding-a-ling, I am a "post-Darwinist" . . . just like Michael Denton (M.D., Ph.D), author of "Evolution: A Theory in Crisis."

    When the facts change — or become clearer — I change my mind. What do you do? (Continue to "seig heil!" to the goosestep of Darwinism just so you can pretend to be "scientific"?)
