    I describe myself as a left leaning centrist. But as that is a European left leaning centrist I can probably drop the centrist for the purposes of this discussion. I am reading your book with interest and enjoyment. Whilst I am not sure that, nor indeed current circumstances are enough to make me abandon the centre left. I have been made some what uneasy by the attidudes of some who, should be my fellow travellers. I am Jewish, and a Zionist (albeit one made uneasy by Bibi's polices in general) but seeing people with badges saying 'lgbt students for ham as' made think, do you not know who those people are? And if you do why are you giving them your support? Again I'm a centrist and will work with, almost, anybody on a cause by cause issue. Not asking what you think about Y if we are working together on X. For example I happy work with people to campaign against the death penalty (when I know that they take a different view on abortion). And I will work with with people who are Free Choice even if I know they are pro-death penalty. Because why would I care? But again I am really enjoying your book. keep them coming.

    Correction: property rights are not “under attack.” They simply do not exist anymore. Two examples: (1) if you own a home, you have to pay for a permit to give you permission to alter the home you supposedly own and (2) you don’t have the right to commit suicide (end your own life) which means you don’t have permission to your own existence. Furthermore , “ownership” is a right in itself-i.e. the right of possession of something. Therefore, if you have no right to something, you do not own it. Hence, socialism and fascism are the same instance of the same thing, which makes the definition of fascism a contradiction of terms.

    It is much easier to articulate a point when you actually believe in what you are saying. He struggles to put together the phraseology that will justify his position.

    That's the worst take on Kant I ever heard. I don't know enough about Rand to know whether Hicks is just blindly following a bad take she is responsible for as a fanboy or is himself responsible for that mess and didn't understand her all that well, but it's utterly unprofessional whatever the original source of this is. Kant was far from putting faith over reason. His whole endeavour was about proving the objective legitimacy of the laws of the sciences by an analysis of the fundamental conditions of human experience and reasoning. While some arguments may be outdated today (he was using Euclidean geometry for an important proof that was outdated by the time of the arrival of Einstein's theory of relativity), Hicks doesn't seem to have any clue whatsoever what the whole point of the Kantian argumentations was directed at. There may be a slight whiff of truth in the "faith" reasoning presented here considering Kant (certainly still child of his time in this regard) didn't outright dismiss faith as necessarily absurd, but located questions like those about the existence of god outside of the realm of possible empirical experience and thus outside of the kind of reasoning science and philosophy can and should engage in. It's not relativism but even trivially true that what our brain makes us experience as, for example, an apple, is nothing more than our sensory experiences of the visuals of the apple, the taste in our mouth when we eat it, the pressure in our hand when we lift it up, the sound we hear when it falls to the ground, and so on. There is no "direct" relation to the thing outside causing the representation our minds will give us and there never can be. Is the "apple by itself" similar, vaguely or vastly different? We can't know, because everything we sense about the apple is fundamentally a representation transmitted through the neurological network of our brain - Kant recognizes this simple fact of the conditions of our experience truthfully, but also teaches his readers that in the end it doesn't matter. He allows us to trust the rules and conclusions (i.e. laws of nature) we can deduce from the things that appear to us and thus solves a long-standing philosophical debate relevant in his time. To paint this as some kind of "postmodern" mumbo jumbo that puts feelings over facts and gives rise to irrational and arbitrary ideas about the world is an almost infantile misconstruction of the arguments presented in the critique of pure reason and the intentions behind his work as a philosopher. Kants arguing was meant to purge professional sciences from contamination with religious quackery and endless engaging in mythological speculations doomed to lead nowhere. It was also a clear rejection of any meddling with epistemological relativism of the kind postmodernists would like people to take seriously centuries later. While it's true he left some possibility for private belief in speculative religious possibilities (i.e. "non-rational" private speculations or hopeful fantasies about non-experiencable things that may or may not exist in some way beyond the limits of our reasoning), framing his work as a fundamental apology of religious dogmatism or fundamental-sceptical rejection of a reality is utterly misleading. As is Hick's ludicrous attempt to count Kant as a figure of "counter-enlightenment" - that stands diametrically opposed to the vast majority of sane takes that would of course place him very clearly as one of the leading figures of the enlightenment movement. I liked some arguments Hicks made in other contexts so far, now I'm actually wondering if I've been listening to a hack all the time. He seems to be able to fail badly in judgment and to unashamedly argue completely out of any professional depth when he is trying to lecture about branches of philosophy he doesn't know much about or seems for whatever reason pre-disposed against.
