Egoism Individualism Sovereignty Splendor (These ideas are explicated in this sloppy manifesto) SplendorQuotes: Splendor is the interior experience of being so enthralled by the act of creating the values that contribute to and ultimately comprise your idealized perfect self that, while you are experiencing it, you are your idealized perfect self. Living is what you're doing when you're too enthralled to notice. Dying is what you're doing when all you can do is notice. Man is the only animal capable of comprehending what his life requires, and he is the only animal capable of failing to do what his life requires. Self-love is the joy and reverence you earn and deserve by the relentless pursuit of your deepest desire. Self-esteem is the high regard in which you presume to hold yourself in appreciation for the accomplishment of absolutely nothing.

Is Sullivan a patsy on 'Gay Rights'--or a shill? Andrew Sullivan wonders: [I]f a gay group wants to win maximum support for its cause, why does it seek to alienate two-thirds of the electorate on an issue utterly unrelated to gay rights?How about: Because 'Gay Rights' is a Communist front, just like 'Feminism'? I can get enough of Sullivan and The Love That Will Not Shut Up, but no one can be this naive. 'Gay Rights' groups are not coincidentally exponents of the Communist left, they are branches of the Communist tree. The members and supporters of the 'Gay Rights Movement,' just as with 'Feminism,' are Useful Idiots. Is this where Sullivan places himself? Or is he pretending to misunderstand the obvious?
