Cogito Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 In the showdown between Kant and Rand, who will be the victor? http://www.googlefight.com/index.php?lang=...2=Immanuel+Kant But what about between Plato and Aristotle? http://www.googlefight.com/index.php?lang=...amp;word2=Plato We've got a lot of work to do.

LaszloWalrus Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Sadly, if one substitutes "Kant" for "Immanuel Kant" the results are quite different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cogito Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 True. But, apparently the pen is in fact mightier than the sword. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guruite Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Sadly, if one substitutes "Kant" for "Immanuel Kant" the results are quite different. It swings back in Miss Rand's favour if it is "Rand" and "Kant." Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musenji Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 No, it swings in the favor of the word "rand", which has nothing necessarily to do with Ayn Rand. Only 3 out of the first 20 results for "rand" refer to her. However, 17 of the first 20 results for "kant" are about Immanuel Kant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guruite Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Ahh, I see. Well, this just means that Rand's eventual triumph will be all the more magnificent!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
