HomePage | Atlas Shrugged | Recent Changes | Preferences

Dr. Simon Pritchett is the prestigious head of the Department of Philosophy at Patrick Henry University and is considered the leading philosopher of the age. He is also a Looter. He is certainly representative of the philosophy of the age - he is a crude reductionist who believes man is nothing but a collection of chemicals; he believes there are no standards, that definitions are fluid, reason is a superstition, that it is futile to seek meaning in life, and that the duty of a philosopher is to show that nothing can be understood. He explains all this in his book [The Metaphysical Contradictions of the Universe]?, and at cocktail parties.

Dr. Pritchett appears in:

 Section161
