A lot of my philosophy is concordant with Objectivism, but I don't believe in their dogmatic claim that there is no god just because they don't understand what God is and can't measure him. They further define God as outside of all of existence. That's the empiricist's fallacy plus victory by definition. The reasoning for this and perhaps some other claims Objectivists make is a bit solipsistic even, where they assume that the way they interpret the thing is the only way anyone could interpret the thing/the only framework that exists. I've noticed a bit of a tendency for this in them, despite the truth and wisdom of much of Objectivism, especially as Liquidzulu on YouTube conceives of it. They totally understand independent frameworks of understanding, consciously, but I think they often fail to apply that understanding in practice.
