They're stronger when they try to argue from logical or cosmic necessity, the bleakness of a universe without meaning, etc.--though these kinds of arguments don't convince me they are right, either. Nevertheless, I find Chambers to be a fluent, graceful writer from whom I find it hard to withhold some sympathy--and, as I said before, his takedown of Ayn Rand gives me joy.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08993570411881726772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8304928500646903522.post-59858840109220135252017-03-16T14:45:55.311-04:002017-03-16T14:45:55.311-04:00Rejecting nationalism in USSR costed world several...Rejecting nationalism in USSR costed world several wars and millions of victims.szopenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02234132446740838968noreply@blogger.com
