Personal Information

Real Name
Roderick Fitts
Description

A person who has always questioned everything surrounding his life and the world around him, and in doing so slowly began to shape the ideas which would become his own unnamed philosophy. Favoring mathematics, his favorite maixm was that "There's always more than one way to solve a problem." It was during his junior year in his high school AP US history that his class read an essay written by Ayn Rand about Railroad Companies of the Industrial Revolution, and after agreeing with her message, noticed that she was an author. After questioning the teacher, it was suggested that he read The Fountainhead, and to his surprise, he found nothing about the ideas in the novel that he disagreed with. In fact, they were the very same views he had always held, but now they were in plain english, shown through Metaphysics, Epistemology, Ethics, Politics, and Aesthetics in a philosophy called Objectivism. Everyday, he still tries to learn something new, either about the world, or about himself.
