Essay World - The biggest online essay resource site - 174-032 Hospers’ entire philosophy can be easily summed up in one sentence from his Manifesto: “Each human being has the right to live his life as he chooses, compatibly with the equal right of all other human beings to live their lives as they choose” (pp. John Locke within his “Second Treatise on Government” covers the development of the need for civil government based on the laws of Nature and those of man. Firstly, in Nature, all men are equal and it is within human nature to love and want to be loved by others, humans, with whom they are equal. The political philosophies of John Rawls have included the aspects of theories of justice, justice as fairness, and political liberalism which are all used in the moral rights of citizens and the structure of society to provide social justice and equal human rights. www.essayworld.com /topics/174-032.html   (897 words)

The Blog of M'Gath: 10/24/2004 - 10/30/2004 Hospers says that the Democrats will use "any possible means to suppress opposing viewpoints." This is a sweeping generalization; both the Democrats and the Republicans have frequently opposed free speech, and the so-called "campaign reform" bill sponsored by McCain and Feingold is a bipartisan law designed to suppress independent criticism of political candidates. Hospers claims, without citing a source, that Kerry "has been quoted as saying that it is honorable for those in the U.S. military to die under the flag of the U.N. but not that of the U.S." The closest to such a quote that I can find with a Google search is this: Hospers correctly writes that "it is Islamic fundamentalism that increasingly threatens the world," but Saddam Hussein isn't an Islamic fundamentalist, just a thug who sometimes made alliances of convenience with such people. mcgath.blogspot.com /2004_10_24_mcgath_archive.html   (1675 words)

Language and Representation Hospers criticises this view as mistakenly imagining that there is a "real" or "true" meaning to a word which we have to discover. Hospers often shows that words could have many meanings, for example the term "solid" could be defined in a scientific way, so as to say "nothing is solid" but he then argues against this by saying such a definition would not be practical. Hospers problem lay in seeking to give an individual explanation to language, and having found the "simple individual origin" to preceed from this to construct his whole theory of language. homepages.anglianet.co.uk /johnm/philosophy/lang.html   (2726 words)

SoloHQ: Forum John Kerry will be bad for America, but there is no good case to be made for rewarding the numbskull George Bush and his neocon hangers on with another 4 years in Washington, and no case whatever for sanctioning his evil administration with a vote.

Advocates for Self-Government - Libertarian Education ohn Hospers has two significant "firsts" by his name: he was the first presidential candidate of the Libertarian Party, and his book Libertarianism was one of the first full-length studies of the modern libertarian philosophy.

The Daily Objectivist wrote: "Hospers wasn't exactly a libertarian when he met Ayn Rand, but he largely came around to her way of thinking..."

Libertarian Discussion Forum / LiDF The election of John Kerry would be, far more than is commonly realized, a catastrophe. Regardless of what he may say in current campaign speeches, his record is unmistakable: he belongs to the International Totalitarian Left in company with the Hillary and Bill Clintons, the Kofi Annans, the Ted Kennedys, and the Jesse Jacksons of the world. If Hospers can't see that this is historically the best policy to avoid war which is "the health of the state" and was the general policy of America's founders as well, then I do have to conclude that he has had a lobotomy. www.network54.com /Forum/thread?forumid=193769&messageid=1098901261&lp=1098904460   (1938 words)

Badnarik/Campagna '04 for President   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07) Hospers is correct here in the sense that we must keep our eyes set on libertarian goals and understand that the Libertarian Party is but one, and potentially not the best, vehicle for achieving those goals. Hospers pushes Badnarik aside before this point, but his doing so is contingent on the validity of Bush vs. Kerry being a clear choice in terms of libertarian ideals. Hospers is not exhibiting for us here a libertarian credential for Mr. badnarik.org /inthenews_item.php?p=1507   (1833 words)

aynrandforum: This is an open letter from John Hospers This is an open letter from John Hospers, the first Libertarian presidential candidate, to libertarians detailing why he is supporting Bush this November. Hospers apparently expects that I am ignorant of history and willing to accept his blustery bullshit in place of knowledge.

writing term papers on A Critical Analysis of John Hospers’ “Argument Against Skepticism” John Hospers’ “Argument Against Skepticism” provides several requirements and conditions for “knowing”: propositions must be true, must be believed to be true and evidence must be available in support of the propositions. The question of evidence remains controversial for the most part as Hospers and critics submit that the degree of evidence must be good enough for those to believe it. Hospers’ arguments differ from that of Descartes and also a great deal from the hypotheses presented by the skeptics; Descartes with the concept that knowledge itself proves existence and the skeptics presenting that nothing is known for certain. www.reports-and-papers.com /papers/A_Critical_Analysis_of-010-087.html   (289 words)

Turning his attention to Bush, Hospers criticizes several of this policies, but then adds, "His great virtue, however, is that he has stood up – knowingly at grave risk to his political viability – to terrorism when his predecessors, Ford, Carter, Reagan, and Clinton did not.
