Why has Objectivism not been more widely adopted?
This is an outgrowth of RMP's and Khalling's "I'm bored" posts, and subsequent debates I have had with Zenphamy and ewv. Zenphamy referred to a "lack of confidence in the philosophy and life applications of Objectivism by all but a handful of the Objectivists of the site". I challenged him to consider why that is.
ewv has reiterated AR's statement that Objectivism is a "philosophy for an individual to live on earth" and accused me of pragmatism. I do not deny the pragmatism charge.
Consider why Objectivism has not been accepted by a wider audience. It surely has had enough time and enough intelligent adherents telling its message to achieve a wider acceptance than it has.
