Mark Posted May 25, 2020 Author Share Posted May 25, 2020 This thread has renewed interest because Saturday Biddle announced the creation of the “Objective Standard Institute.” I added some of the details to the end ofThe Center of Mass Shifts Further (After opening that page, if you had visited before you might need to press your browser’s refresh key, typically F5 or Ctrl R, to the see the update.)

Neil Parille Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 The new group doesn't have any big names in philosophy yet. And Biddle never seemed all that interested in that. His "journal" consists mostly of feel-good pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted May 25, 2020 Author Share Posted May 25, 2020 Biddle is based in Glen Allen, VA but OSI is doing some of its business from Laguna Hills, CA which is where Barney is. I suspect Barney controls this new show, and since Peikoff just gave Barney permission to broadcast his past lectures as well as use Rand’s name, Barney may do it through OSI.

Neil Parille Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I wonder if Peikoff knows how leftist Biddle is and that Barney is a scientologist. He's up there in years and doesn't look like he's in good health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted May 25, 2020 Author Share Posted May 25, 2020 It turns out, according to Craig Biddle, that OSI is incorporated in Glen Allen, VA (like TOS) but he himself has moved to Laguna Hills, CA. What was the point of moving there if not to be near Carl Barney? Peikoff did stupid things when he was younger so we can't be sure his current liaison with Barney is just due to old age. Barney would not call himself a Scientologist but in my opinion he is still influenced by its ideas and procedures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Parille Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Yeah, I should have said "ex-Scientologist." I just wonder: how bad can things be in Peikoff's mind concerning the ARI to do this at his old age? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
