Know, Mr Bowers, that death is not a place in space or time. Know you
did not come from nothing and will, hence, not return into it. Life

All philosophers of the past could not benefit from the abundance of 'new information' available to us today. Even Ms Rand did not know we are not born ex-nihlo. This is not to say that philosophy has now become obsolete, but, rather, that you must be your own philosopher.
