This website is a place where I try to make sense of this often chaotic world around us. Here you can find my views on current events, history, politics, and more, all from within the context of Ayn Rand’s philosophy of Objectivism. Her philosophy is one that upholds

Reality – Reason – Egoism – Capitalism – Romanticism

If you don’t know much about Ayn Rand and her philosophy or if you have heard only negative things, you might want to check out some of the resources linked in the menu at the top of the page. On the Objectivism page, you can find a brief description of what Objectivism entails. The Resources page contains lists of some books, videos, audio lectures, and websites that I have found valuable. On the Speakers/Authors page, you can find these same resources from my favorite speakers and authors.

If you want to jump right into the blog posts, you can either click on the Blog Posts link in the top menu to go to the recent posts or  check out the list of recently popular posts located below.

If you like what you find here, please consider signing up for my weekly email newsletter. Once I week I send out an update of what is new and popular on the blog, my current book list, articles I’ve come across that I found interesting (though I don’t always agree with them), and the occasional personal note.

Again, welcome to Order from Chaos. I hope you find what I have here of value.
