Permanent Articles

The Autonomist Permanent Articles contain the essential principles and flavor of the Autonomist philosophy. These are not philosophical essays, but the application of philosophical principles to specific facts and issues. At least three of these articles are classic documents on their subjects.

Basic Ideas These are the essential concepts lying at the heart of all knowledge and correct reason. It is these concepts all the weapons of the modern anti-intellectual post-modernist nihilism are aimed at.

Humanism This is a critique of humanism which claims to be a philosophy, but is in fact, collectivist, altruistic, and socialistic in principle, and the worst kind of skepticism.

Individualist Revolt Atlas Shrugged: A Model for Individualist Revolution.

July 4 Declaration The Declaration of Independence of the Thirteen Colonies, July 4, 1776.

Liberty or Death Patrick Henry's famous speech, which principles are timeless.

Logical Fallacies This list and discussion of logical fallacies covers both formal and informal fallacies and is nearly exhaustive (or as one reader said, "exhausting."

Medicine This is a critique of medicine, not of the science of medicine, but the quackery that pervades that field, with the full support of the Federal Government.

Money (-Rand) Francisco d'Anconia's famous Money Speech from Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged. This is the most profound celebration and defence of the moral virtue of money.

Philosophy (-Rand) Address To The Graduating Class Of The United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, March 6, 1974 by Ayn Rand. This is both a moving and profound explication of the absolute necessity of philosophy to life and success of the individual.

Proof This refutation of the post-modernist claims that, "nothing can be proved absolutely," and "nothing can be known for certain," is an untechnical but smashing obliteration of that particular perversion of the truth.

Religion (satire) Exposes that superstitious and irrational nature of organized religions by examining, in a satirical (but technically correct) way, the teachings of Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, and various flavors of Christianity.

Science A critique, not of legitimate science, but of the pseudo-science and junk-science that pervades the field and is used by politicians and charlatans to fleece their respective victims.

Truth & Superstition Examines why men prefer almost anything to reason, which is the only faculty we have been endowed with to discover and understand the truth.

What Is Philosophy Explains exactly what philosophy is and why a rejection of it is madness. Contains the best explanation of what is meant by volition (mistakenly called "free will"), and why that faculty makes philosophy an absolute necessity of human life in the same way as food is.

What Is Superstition Explores the nature of superstition and demonstrates it is the dominant psychological (epistemological) state of humanity and explains why mankind continues to pursue the most absurd of ideas and how the rational individual must deal with the irrational.
