Through use of herbs and breathing exercises Lao Tzu was able to maintain a level of virility well into old age which puts most adolescents to shame. :oops:
Coupled with his mastery of forbidden techniques... :wink:

Who is the sexiest philosopher?

That would be Ms. Ida C. Craddock, since even Angels endorse & verify, that with her propagating her philosophy, "her intercourse with Soph was so noisy as to draw complaints from her neighbors."

Though, I'm still on my pedestal in the Garden.

I have studied philosophy for more than four years and never thought of this question in these terms. But I have to say that I love Ayn Rand. I love her accent, and well, Ok, I am smitten with her.

You two do know how Ayn Rand made Maslow's Self-Actualization so popular, don't you?
(it ended up with a little self-esteem mess for those involved in the continuing popularity dispute, though now it's frequently shrugged-off too)

Rand was a short-waisted Jewess from Russia. Her birth name was Rosenbaum.

It is interesting, I stumbled upon her by accident. I started with The Fountainhead and then read Atlas Shrugged. I also have the audio versions.

What I learned is that the personalities you deal with at work in my opinion are just the same in her books. Seems like everyone has an agenda. Good or bad after working 30 years in business it all made sense. This is my experience as a corporate executive.

While I have studied philosophy some four years many would be hesitant to label Ayn Rand as a philosopher. Many of her ideas are not necessarily original. She took much from Aristotle for instance. I have about 20 books now on her from biography to just about everything she has written and commentaries.

I love her views on Altruism, Reason, and the fact that she is an Atheist. Her philosophy of Objectivism certainly has some good points to think about.
