I'm laughing at you not affraid of you, but in reality, little boys
are fucked in church by people whose reality is mind made, 3000
victims 9/11 were the result of a mind made reality, zillions of
freedom violating laws exist from a mind made reality and Kant's
victims get to vote of course. Why do you ask?

Any (odd or not) psychological dispositions of Kant's may of course explain
how he came to do what he did, however, disregarding his biography, his
propositions stand or fall on their own merit.

I'm certain that Ayn Rand would disagree with you. Besides,
she was more concerned with selling her philosophy to the
masses than in using it to bash others over the head.

Rand clearly identified the ENEMY of mankind was nothing more simple
to explain than *irrationalism*.
There is NOTHING more irrational than claiming reality is totally
dependent upon man's mind.
